Homemade Chicken Salad

Homemade Chicken Salad is easy to make with a few simple ingredients.  A generous scoop spread on toasted wheat bread makes a tasty sandwich.  Top with Ritz crackers for crunchy flavor and to make a nice presentation.

Mt. Olive Sweet Salad Cubes add color and delicious flavor.  The salad cubes are cut larger and are crunchier than sweet relish.  I was delighted to receive several complimentary jars of pickles from the company.  This mention is with great pleasure because I love their sweet salad cubes!

Excellent served with crispy Ritz crackers.

Enjoy!
