Ompfhgd... which means, " Hello food fans, OMG this is GOOD, " while my mouth is full. I just made southern style chicken salad, reminiscent of Meme and Aunt Stay's, from days gone by. It was soooo good, that I sat right down, found my old foodie blog and am now sharing the simple recipe with any family and friends who wonder how it's done. So here it 'tis:
Southern style chicken salad:
Leftover chicken (works best when it's simply been boiled on stove and then chilled)
Sweet pickle relish (preferably homemade, so thanks Aunt Margie!)
Celery
Mayonnaise (Duke's if you have it!)
Salt, pepper, and the only new twist on this is that I also used Fines Herbs (Spice Island brand)
True to my lineage, I didn't measure! My guess is that for every 3-4 servings, you would use about 3 chicken breasts, 1/4 cup of each, celery and relish, and about 1/2 cup mayonnaise.
I didn't even sit down to eat it! I found white- wheat bread, smeared it on and gulped it down. Sadly, I didn't even wait to make sweet sun tea. Oh well. There's left-overs.
Enjoy!
Marci
