Chicken Salad With Apples & Walnuts

Submitted by Pvt Amys Mom

"A little spin on the classic chicken salad. I found this recipe in a Schwan's Home Service Catalog. The only real reason it caught my attention is because they served it in Oranges and it looked good - otherwise I probably would not have even taken a second look. I am glad I did ... this is yummy!"

Oh my gravy, COMPLETELY dee-lish!! Sorry there is no picture to post; it didn't last that long. My husband smoked 2 large marinated chicken breasts yesterday. We are empty-nesters so we split one breast the first night and used the 2nd breast to make this salad. Of course I modified amounts to accommodate less meat and the only ingredient modification I made was a little lemon pepper along with black pepper from the grinder mill. This recipe could compete against (and is probably better than) a 5-star restaurant dish. Bravo, Chef and thank you!!
