1/4c sour cream
1 T sugar
1 t lemon rind (zest)

I could do without the last three ingredients.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be good on a baked potato too. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Chicken salad and used to have the yummiest recipe for it with grapes and walnuts in it. I wonder if it's in the recipe's I got from Marc the other day.....off to search!
ReplyDeleteI put grapes in my chicken salad too. droooools.
ReplyDeleteAt the restaurant (Pampered Palate in Hooterville) we made a Dill Chicken salad...we used sour cream, mayo, dill, chopped hard cooked eggs, celery...you know I can't remember if we used onion or not...but I think not. Then stacked it with bacon strips, lettuce. YUM.
I have never had grapes in chicken salad. I'm saving this recipe, but I'm not sure about those grapes. :)
ReplyDeleteDried cranberries is yummy in there too! I've even had it with mandarin oranges!
ReplyDeleteI'll just have to try it.
ReplyDeleteI've had it with pineapple, too, but don't like that as much. Grapes are yummy- I've never seen toasted almonds, but I can put a few in and decide if I like it before I "contaminate" the entire bunch!
ReplyDeleteAnd dill sounds good, too!
Sour cream, eh?? omg.. I just put half a chicken up in the freezer.. we always buy deli rotisserie chicken.. and then.. I find a use for it later.
ReplyDeleteYou can buy toasted almonds in the salad section.. I buy them all the time!
ReplyDeleteGlad you didn't include onion Janeen. My biggest hate
ReplyDeleteScott doesn't like onions, either. I usually leave them out. (Unless I can sneak one in without him knowing!)
ReplyDeletewell all my wives used to sneak them in. Sometimes we know and sometimes we don't. When the onion is thoroughly cooked in, we often don't know. But if we get that taint, it is really revolting.
ReplyDeleteYes, that is his complaint entirely. He doesn't care if I sneak one in if he can't taste that eye-watering onion taste.
ReplyDeleteBeauty is in the eyes of the beholder
