I love a good chicken salad, especially when it is served on a flaky croissant. That is exactly how I served this orchard style chicken salad. However, feel free to serve it up however you want to.
This chicken salad includes celery for crunch and grapes halves for sweetness. Diced apple is also in there too, adding both crunch and sweetness. The base is simple and just uses mayonnaise, salt, and pepper.
There is also sliced almonds included. I love the added flavor and crunch that they add to the salad. However, feel free to leave them out or use a different kind of nut. I think both walnuts and pecans would work well.
