This chicken salad is a bit too mayonnaise-y for my taste.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken.

This chicken salad is the best I've ever had! It's so flavorful and creamy, and the toasted almonds add a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this again.
