Chicken Salad With Craisins and Almonds image

This is a very nice chicken salad and simple to make. Kids love it. I love to serve it in a croissant and half them, for a great sandwich tray. You can stuff a tomato or simply top a little on some salad green's.

CRAISIN CHICKEN SALAD

I love chicken salad, mostly because it's so easy to do. This one is a nice change from the usual with the addition of craisins. The cream cheese makes it super creamy, but I leave it out sometimes and bump up the mayo instead.
