This chicken salad is amazing, the combination of grapes with pecans, mixed in with a creamy mixture of mayonnaise, dijon mustard and honey go so beautiful with the perfectly juicy chicken. It’s so easy to make and always ready to go, you pack it up and take it to work or school and it’ll never let you down.

I worked in a high end restaurant in Atlanta and I had to make chicken salad every day. I baked the chicken breast I used to me it makes it taste better than boiling it because it maintains all its flavor.
I really need to see the end directions for the pot roast
Where was the recipe….??? Rachel said it would be at the end..
Rachel, absolutely love your channel and how you explain everything start to finish! You not only have great recipes but a very pleasant person that I enjoy listening to. Keep up the good work!
Love your channel this is a great recipe the only thing I changed was the mayo I used DUKES it's the only mayonnaise in the world to me
Do you have a cook book out that can be ordered?
You aregoood but ingrediants letters are too smal would love it if they were in big letters. Thanks
My sister in law made good chicken salad with the grapes 🍇 but I may remember her using almonds? I've been wanting to try making it. Found another recipe I'd wanted to try and now I'm intrigued by yours. Looking forward to 3.
** I however would make it easier on myself and just use a rotisserie chicken. Lol
Rachel, I just had some of your children salad. Mmnn, wonderful!
I love chicken salad and will make this recipe soon.
This was the best chicken salad I’ve ever had! Perfect on homemade yeast rolls. Thank you Rachel. Definitely a keeper!

I agree with you Dorothy.

I just wanted to tell you that I made this last night and it's one of the most delicious chicken salads that I've ever had. Thank you so much for this recipe.
On a side note, I just found your channel last weekend when I needed a different tamale recipe. Your tamales are outstanding and this is coming from a S TX native.

Hi Rachel, I’d like to use some canned chicken I already have. Would you brown the chicken a little for extra flavor for this?
Your chicken salad looks good I will try but you have to watch the cross contamination with the chicken board and knife . Blessings
I love good chicken salad !! and this recipe sounds so good ! I can't wait to try it. I live in Virginia and we southerners DO like chicken in ways different from fried lol. Thank You so much for this delicious recipe. It will become a go to for between meals " hold me over" food or add to for dinner ( the mid day meal ) SUPPER is still the evening meal here ! LOL
