Man I use capers and chopped salty dill pickles. The little minis work the best. I also use a little cream cheese to give the mayo a bit of sharpness. Minced onion and a bit of Dijon mustard to finish it off. Of course if you want a fruity sweet salad, you wouldn't want any of these ingredients.

I like to add grapes when I substitute curry for dill. The sweetness of the grapes balances the curry for my taste.

I boil hen after a crawfish boil...... Debone, put some in a blender with celery, green onions, mayo, a little lemon juice, and sometimes: hidden valley ranch salad dressing dry mix. I know that sounds crazy - but my wife is convinced thats what Calvins has n theirs......

Olive Oil Mayo makes a great chick salad.

Im not crazy about grapes or nuts n it..... This board has aleays had a battle over "crunchy" or "no crunchies" n a chicken salad.

Some folks use creole mustard n chick salad..... Some use hard boiled egg whites.... Some do pickle/pickle relish.... Some use green olives/and or capers.....


Hopefully those r enuff ideas to create one u really like

I like using a grocery store rotisserie chicken. Creole seasoning, celery, onion, liberal dose of coarse ground pepper, a squeeze of lemon, and couple of big dollops of mayo.

Cook chicken tenders in broth with a couple of stalks of celery and half an onion.

Take out tenders and cube to as size you like. We do 1/2 inch give or take.

Save broth and a couple of tenders to make chicken and rice - really good

for salad 4 parts chicken, 1 part chopped celery, 1/2 part chopped onion, 1 part chopped sweet pickles, 1/2 part good mayo. Chill.

This works very well with Sam's Rotisserie chicken.

You can jazz this up as you like - A handfull of craisins, chopped walnuts, halfed grapes, sub dill pickles and low fat mayo for the sweet pickles to save calories.
