Cricket's Chicken Salad

Yesterday I had a really fun baby shower....well it was for 2 sweet mommies at once so I guess it was a double baby shower. The mom's were showered with love, attention and all things cute and baby!

I on the other hand I was showered with so many asking for the recipe for the chicken salad croissant sandwiches I served. I have to say it is my favorite. I like it on a croissant...

Maybe add some crispy lettuce....

Or if cutting back on the bread I just have it on a bed of lettuce....

I hope you enjoy it as much as the ladies did yesterday!

Cricket's Chicken Salad with Grapes

5 lbs. cooked chicken breast, chopped


7 stalks of celery, diced

2 bunches of green onions, diced (less or none is ok if you don't like green onions)

1 lb. seedless grapes (red or green)

Mix together and set aside; make dressing.



Dressing:

3 cups mayonnaise

3 Tbsp. soy sauce

3 Tbsp. sugar

1/2 tsp. ginger

1/2 tsp. celery seed

Salt and pepper to taste

Mix dressing together and pour over chicken mixture.

Stir until mixed well.

Chill and right before you serve mix in 1 lb. cashews and (optional of course if you don't like nuts)

3 cups chinese rice sticks. ( I usually just use potato sticks) They are like crunchy potato chips cut in little tiny strips that come in a can. I usually find them with the nuts or the potato chip isle in the grocery store. If you can't find them ask someone in the store about them.
