CHUNKY CHICKEN SALAD
Simple to prepare chicken salad that I make up for sandwiches. We never have left-over chicken, so I microwave chicken just to make this. Very basic but very good! P.S. Celery is listed as optional because my husband hates it...if I am only making this for him, I leave it out! :)

ALMOND TARRAGON CHICKEN SALAD
I used to get this salad at the deli in Publix supermarket, it was around six dollars a pound. It is so easy to prepare at home. Tastes great on crescent rolls or just about any bread of choice, toasted or plain.
