CHICKEN-APPLE-WALNUT SALAD WITH HONEY MUSTARD DRESSING



Chicken-Apple-Walnut Salad With Honey Mustard Dressing image

Served at the 1870 Wedgwood Inn in New Hope Boro, Pennsylvania, this simple chicken salad combines common ingredients in a less-than-common way, and with great results. If you happen to have some cooked chicken in your fridge (or perhaps a rotisserie chicken), you could probably save time by simply shredding that and using it instead of the freshly cooked diced chicken. NOTE: Cook time is chill time for the prepared salad.
