CHICKEN SALAD

Chicken Salad image

This is a great recipe that I recreated many years ago after visting the McDonalds Tea Room in Gallatin, Mo. Long since gone, this chicken salad was a big favorite when this restaurant was in it's hey day. Duncan Hines said this was the best chicken salad he had ever had. Cook time does not include time used to cook chicken or eggs.
