Sensational Spring Salad

by on ‎04-02-2014 02:22 PM


We have a really nice restaurant in our neighborhood that is only open for breakfast and lunch.  My family loves going there for breakfast but our favorite dish is their chicken salad.  I don't know what it is that makes it soooo good but we just can't get enough of it!  I think part of their secret is to keep it simple. Chelsea and I were trying to think of something for dinner last night and decided we wanted Meghan's chicken salad.  Of course they close at 2:00pm so that was not gonna happen.  We decided to make it ourselves.  We were pleasantly surprise at how our chicken salad turned out.  This is a no frills recipe.  No grapes, nuts, onions etc.  (although my friend Holly make one with all the for mentioned extras that I love) we were going for quick and easy, Meghan's style chicken salad. Try it and let me know what you think.  Enjoy!

I am looking for new healthy tasty ideas, especially as the weather gets warmer and the days longer.  If you have a recipe that you wouldn’t mind sharing please send it with a picture to my email:  j_brown@qvc.com or you can post it directly on my Facebook page.  I will pick one recipe each Wednesday for the month of April to feature on my page and in a blog.  Please make sure your recipes and pictures are your own so I don’t get in trouble!  Lol! {#emotions_dlg.laugh} Then check out my Facebook page each Wednesday for the "Sensational Spring Salad" of the week!


Here is my latest creation:  


No Frills Chicken Salad 


What you'll need:


4 boneless chicken breasts


1 cup chopped celery 


Salt & pepper


3 tbsp. Helmans mayonnaise 


1/2 tsp. Lawry's Seasoned salt


1/2 tsp. celery seed


Directions:




  • Season chicken breasts with salt & pepper bake uncovered 375 degrees until cooked throughout.  Let cool.






  • Cut chicken to bite sized pieces.  Mix in remaining ingredients. 






  • You can add more mayo if you like a creamier consistency. 






  • I served it on fresh spring mix greens and topped with fresh chopped tomatoes and cilantro.
