I opened the refrigerator early this morning and saw a package of red grapes next to some leftover chicken. That did it. All I could think of was the fabulous chicken croissant served at Christy Mae’s in Albuquerque, NM.
I decided to work with what I had in the house and I am quite happy with how it turned out for me.
This is a very simple chicken salad, minimal ingredients and truly delicious. I loved the sweetness of the grapes with the slight tang of the dressing. I will be making this again and again.
I enjoyed my chicken salad on a simple bed of spring mix lettuces. My son ate his on the bread that I made yesterday. With that and a handful of vegetables, his lunch was served. He liked it so much he had two servings and asked if I could make it again tomorrow.

This was nice and simple to make. My family really appreciates a chicken salad without celery. The flavors aren't overwhelming, so my picky eaters didn't complain. I added one green onion and some crumbled bacon to take it up just a notch flavor wise. Thanks for the great base recipe!

DELICIOUS! I will definitely make this again but with a little less salt.
