RUSSIAN CHICKEN AND BEET SALAD

The Russian name for this classic Russian salad is garnet bracelet, named after a famous Russian short story by the same name since the pomegranate seeds resemble garnets. Layers of beets, potato, egg, walnuts, and chicken make this a fantastically different option for lunch or a buffet.

RUSSIAN CHICKEN SALAD

My mother found this recipe in a Russian cookbook. It is a different take on chicken salad, but I find it very nice for lunch or supper. You make the ingredients very chunky so it is not really a sandwich chicken salad but more of a salad.
