Kim's Chicken Salad

Here is another recipe from my girls' weekend last month. Kim made this yummy salad and I just got the recipe. I only managed to take pictures of this one and Caroline's Chickpea Curry. Sara made a delicious salad (I believe it had romaine lettuce, feta cheese, grilled chicken, avocado and tomato in it), Liz served up yummy fajitas and I made my tortilla beef casserole. I really loved this chicken salad though! I ate mine with Baked Lays :-).

SALAD:
2 or 3 chicken breasts, cubed and cooked
2 large Fuji apples, diced
4 or 5 stalks of celery, diced

DRESSING:
2 heaping Tbsp of mayonnaise
1 Tbsp vinegar
Pepper and salt to taste

DIRECTIONS: (from Kim)
I chop everything up, put it in a large bowl and then mix the dressing in a separate bowl. Since these are not exact measurements, make sure you mix and taste the dressing before you pour it on the salad. If I have a bunch of meat-eaters at dinner, I tend to add more chicken (you can substitute 2 or 3 cans of Costco chicken, in which case I shred it). If it's just me and Garrett, I add more apples at least to my plate because that's what I like (you can use any kind, but Fuji really taste the best to me in this - you want real sweet ones). You can add whatever else you want to the salad - sometimes I add walnuts. Some people substitute grapes for apples. Have at it! Good alone as a salad or with any kind of bread, including pita.

The sad cook that I am, I honestly can't tell you how honored I feel for making any kind of recipe blog!
