I enjoyed this version of chicken salad quite a bit. I thought the inclusion of cinnamon was inspired and tasted delicious! It really did make me think of fall. I know I am raving over the cinammon, but to assure future readers; it really is a background note, not overpowering at all. I will be making this again and again. Thank you chef for a keeper!

This was a very tasty lunch! I cut the recipe in half to serve my DH and myself. We ate it on lettuce leaves and I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow for me. The only thing I don't like is the aftertaste of the onions. I think I would cut back some on those and increase the amount of carrots instead. 4 stars.
