Waldorf Chicken Salad

Hippie2MARS's Note:

I LOVE the flavor combination in a classic Waldorf Salad, so I created this salad, which has become my favorite chicken salad. It's also good with pecans if you don't have walnuts. Good, firm apples are an important component of this recipe.

This was a delicious salad for our dinner last night! I used a Fuji apple, green grapes and added some hot sauce to the mix. We're eating leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Made for PAC Spring 2012.

i picked this one because i love the juice-factor from the grapes (much better than raisons). I followed the recipe exactly, except used canned, drained chicken. absolutely delicious!!
