Cranberry Apple Chicken Salad

A little something to get you ready for all this nice picnic weather we've been having.  Enjoy my friends and have a great day.
INGREDIENTS
  • 4 cups diced, cooked chicken (between 2-4 chicken breast, depending on size)
  • 1 large celery stalk, diced
  • 1-2 green onions, sliced
  • ¾ cup dried cranberries
  • ½ cup pine nuts, toasted
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ – ½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Add all of the ingredients to a large bowl, and stir with a fork to combine.
  2. You don’t have to use a fork, but it helps to break the chicken up and give the salad a more appetizing texture.
  3. If it seems a little dry, add one tablespoon of mayo at a time until you reach the right consistency. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
  5. Serve as sandwiches on croissants or on top of a bed of greens for a lighter option.
