This Chicken Salad is anything but ordinary. It's filled with diced chicken, crisp celery, grapes, and green onions all tossed in a creamy dressing.

Ingredients

1 cup (240g) real mayonnaise
1 (8oz)(226g) package cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon season salt
3 cups (450g) cooked and cubed chicken
3 cups (360g) chopped celery
3 cups (480g) red or green halved seedless grapes
1 (8oz)(227g) can water chestnut, drained and chopped
¾ cup (75g) chopped green onion

Instructions

In a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, cream cheese, and season salt. Add in the remaining ingredients and gently combine.
Serve immediately as a salad or sandwich--or make in advance (which I think it tastes even better the next day!)

Recipe Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
