2/3 cup mayonnaise
2 hard-cooked large eggs, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
1 celery rib, diced
1/4 cup sliced scallions (white and light green parts)
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 cups (about 3 ounces) crisp greens, like romaine or Boston lettuce, for serving
One 15-ounce can mandarin oranges, drained, for garnish

Steps:

  • Divide the greens equally among four to six plates. Serve the chicken over the greens and garnish with the orange segments.
  • a bit more, y'all
  • Mama likes to put halved seedless purple grapes in her salad-you can add them here for a little more fruit and a nice color contrast.
