Rice A Roni Curried Chicken Salad image

I needed a recipe for a potluck in a hurry. All I had on hand was some leftover Rice A Roni from one of the family size boxes. I added chopped leftover chicken, grapes, mandarin oranges, marinated artichokes a bit of mayo, a thinly sliced stalk of celery, curry powder and some slivered almonds. Now it's one of my go to summer...

1/2 c canned mandarin oranges, drained
1 c fresh green seedless grapes, halved

Reserve 2 tbsp of the marinated artichoke oil. In a large bowl, add the cooked Rice a Roni and the rest of the ingredients. TASTE! Adjust seasonings to your taste!!
