Very good and tasty, good job Ellie. I didnt have any fresh parsley or dill seed, so I ommited the parsley and used dill weed, 1/2 of what was suggested for the dill seed. Still was very good, I plan on making it this way from this day fourth. I chopped some romaine lettuce and put it in a bowl, mixed it up with this recipe and shook a few shakes of malt vinergar over the top, delicious!! Thanks

Very good basic recipe, even though I had to make some minor changes based on what I had on hand. I used cooked leftover chicken, so that eliminated steps 1-3. I had to use dried parsley (less of course) because I had no fresh. Dried dill instead of seeds, and my celery was on it's last legs, so I salvaged what I could, chopped it and a little onion in the food processor, and then added celery salt to the final product. This may look like a lot of changes, but it really isn't, hence the 5 stars. Yummy

YUM!! Had some leftover chicken to be dealt with today. Love the idea of cooking raw in the celery and onions though without using them in the recipe! I will definitely be trying that soon! I subbed celery seed since I had no celery and was out of dill as well. I know chicken salad with dill is awesome though and I cannot wait to try it will fresh this summer! Thanks for a winner recipe!

Pretty good. I used Light Miracle Whip instead of Mayo (healthier) and sliced green onions instead of white whole onions. Seemed like it was missing a little something, don't know what though. Works awesomely as a quick pre-made sandwich throughout the week. Didn't take long to make and pretty easy!

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
