or pears

tryon harris teeter sells this wilmington chicken salad next to their dairy... it's not exact, but it's pretty close to the recipe my late great grandma and dad now uses when they boil the chicken off the bone and use whole chunks in it

2/18/2011 8:50:44 PM

^That's Robert's.

That's not chicken salad. That's fruit salad that happens to contain chicken.

2/18/2011 8:56:20 PM

that's it!

my dad's recipe has a little more dill and something else i can't put my finger on (probably some crazy shit my snuff-loving great-grandma put into it (no not snuff)) but good lord, you can eat it plain

2/18/2011 9:18:03 PM

^^ no because it only contains ONE of those fruits

chicken

celery

mayo

the regulars.

You're probably one of those people that think it's ok to put grapes in chicken salad.

You people disgust me.

Cafe Carolina has the only chicken salad that I like.

2/18/2011 9:30:12 PM

i actually prefer apples. grapes are kinda weird.

TYPICALLY though i do the boiled on the bone chunky kind with mayo, maybe a little mustard, celery, dill and CRACKED PEPPER

bttt

My favorite purchased chicken salad is from Lowes Foods. It has grapes and nuts (which I almost never put in my own) and is dressed with a poppy seed dressing. Last week I had one that had bleu cheese crumbles in it, which was surprisingly awesome considering I very rarely like bleu cheese.

I'm about to make some and can't decide if I want to try to make a knockoff poppy seed version or do something else like curried chicken salad or http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/honey-chicken-salad-10000001194629/. Another recipe I just saw used honey mustard, which intrigues me, so I might try that.

Someone help me decide. This is very important.

You should use Duke's Mayonnaise. It's the secret of great cooks.

4/11/2013 2:06:06 PM

I usually get Duke's but right now we have some olive oil kind because it was BOGO. I only use a tiny bit of mayo anyway. Greek yogurt is where it's at.

Tookies!

4/11/2013 2:07:48 PM

breasts or thighs?

I cooked two full chickens to salad-ify. I just made some with homemade honey mustard, Greek yogurt, celery, green onion, apple and thyme. Not sure what I will do with the rest of it.

Next poll question is do you like yours finely chopped or chunky? I prefer chicken chunked and veggies smaller, but Aaron dices the shit out of his chicken.

4/11/2013 2:39:15 PM

if your post doesn't come to the conclusion that Tookies is the only option, you're a god damned idiot

4/11/2013 2:45:59 PM

I like it chunky, and I can go either way on the fruits and stuff, as long as there is plenty of mayo, lol



maybe if i add enough garlic powder to it, I wouldn't notice using fat free eggless mayo

what else do you add when you use greek yogurt in place of mayo?

4/11/2013 2:47:55 PM

^ TOOKIES

i keep meaning to make avocado chicken salad because that shit is all over pinterest and i want it in my face

also mayo is gross. seriously.

4/11/2013 2:48:37 PM

u want shit in your face?

4/11/2013 2:49:52 PM

I use avocado for my tuna salad.... I can't believe I used to do it any other way

4/11/2013 2:51:21 PM

i'm a long, long way from six forks and anderson rd

4/11/2013 2:52:01 PM

I have tried avocado before and it's OK, but I like regular better.

With this one, my full dressing was dijon and spicy brown mustard, a tiny bit of mayo, lemon juice and a bit of vinegar to make the honey mustard, then mixed that with the Greek yogurt and salt and pepper. Oh, and I threw in like a teaspoon of some garlic dressing I had made a while back because I wanted to get rid of it.

When I started subbing the yogurt I worked up to it. Now I like almost straight yogurt and no mayo.

4/11/2013 2:55:30 PM

oh gawd, i know what would be perfect in that version with avocado... olio al bergamotto. It's olive oil with bergamot orange essence, and just a tsp of that in an avocado makes guacamole that blows my mind.

4/11/2013 2:59:51 PM

recipes plz

Chicken + Mayo + Whatever other shit you like.

I like grapes and/or raisins in my chicken salad. I do enjoy those little bursts of sweetness.

lowe's foods grape chicken salad is pretty good for grocery store chicken salad

4/22/2015 1:43:57 PM

Yo, sadlacks had the permanent funk of hobo taint. I cant imagine being in that place for very long, let alone consume food

4/22/2015 3:43:20 PM

Any chicken salad that doesn't have bullshit like grapes or apples in it I can tolerate. Oh yeah no pickle relish also.

4/22/2015 6:47:56 PM

had some lowe's food grape chicken salad for lunch [100 emoji]
