Cantaloupe with Chicken Salad image

This recipe is one of my favorite ways to eat blueberries. That delicious fruit is just one of the important crops grown here in the fertile Willamette Valley. They're grown for commercial use, but we usually pick about 60 pounds each summer for pies and other dishes.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a hit with my family. I usually add a little bit of chopped celery and onion to the chicken salad for some extra crunch.
