Hellmann's mayonnaise


Frozen peas








Cut up vegetables Cook the noodles and add the frozen peas at the last 3 minutes of the boiling noodles. Drain and rinse with cold water.


Add vegetable, mayonnaise, noodles and peas then the chicken. Using the canned chicken add the water from the can. Add at the end with the rest so it does not break up to much. You will have to add more mayonnaise as it soaks up about 1 to 2 hours later.





If using cooked chicken, add onion, celery together until done. Cool cooked chicken dice. Add salt and salad dressing or mayonnaise. Add chopped eggs. Garnish with paprika.





Optional - a pinch of Paprika on eggs, but not to much otherwise it will change the taste to much.





Optional - cherry tomatoes.

Hi Curious;





If you want homemade chicken salad then I would suggest boiling some chicken breasts or if you have baked chicken on hand from a previous meal this is ok also.





2/3 cups of chicken (cut up)or 2 cans of chicken breast in the tuna isle.


1/2 cup chopped celery or use 1/2 teaspoon of celery seed


salt/pepper to taste


1/4 cup onion (optional)


Mrs.Dash (herb%26amp;garlic) or (regular) to taste


Miracle Whip


walnuts, green grapes = these items are optional. Sometimes if I want a different taste than just plain chicken salad I will chop a few walnuts and cut up a few green grapes into the salad mix.


Mix your ingredients together and let chill for an hr. Now if you don't like Miracle Whip you can use Mayo. Your preference.


Now, sometimes I will sprinkle a little sugar into the salad to give it a boost of sweetness but here again it's your preference. You don't have too. Enjoy! This salad recipe is good on toast or even stuffed in a tomato for a summer dish. have a super one.
If you're going for easy, just mix together


1 can white meat chicken


tablespoon of mayo


teaspoon miracle whip


tablespoon sweet pickle relish


salt and pepper to taste





Its easy and you can adjust the amout of mayo and miracle whip depending on how wet or dry you want it.
Chicken and salad. :) Really I just buy some chicken cook it tear the meat off and put it in a bowl. Then I add Miracle whip and some sweet pickle relish. Then a touch of pepper and couple of boiled eggs. I am a simple person.
