Hot Chicken Salad image

Tasty chicken casserole with just the right amount of crunch made especially yummy by toasted almonds! A great use for left over chicken or turkey. This was one of the ultimate comfort foods my mom used to make for us. The original recipe calls for twice the amount of mayo, but I found using less makes the recipe much less greasy.
