Best chicken salad I've ever had...

Calvins Bocage Market

anyone know how to make it?

seems to me it has a slight cheese taste or sour creamish taste, but I could be way off.

No eggs. Meat seems to be food processorized.

Calvin's was my favorite until I tried Shelby's Chicken Salad. Now Calvin's sells Shelby's chicken salad, salad dressing, pimento cheese spread, and a few other items over there close to the Calvin's chicken salad section.

Some have tried using a pack of dry hidden valley ranch mix and said it's pretty darn close

They use full fat Hellmann's Mayo which is probably where the tangy flavor is coming from.

I've had people tell me my Chicken Salad tastes a lot like Calvin's. I don't know if it does or doesn't since I've never eaten theirs.

I don't measure anything so I just can give you what I use.

deboned chicken (after deboning I run it through the food processor a couple of turns.

Mayo (I use blue plate or Helmons) I add to I get the consistence I like not dry but not to creamy
Celery finely chopped (about 4 or 5 stalks)
Mustard (just a little) add as you like it
Tony's seasoning
Garlic powder
Celery salt
