Don"t Throw That Chicken Away - Salad
This is so simple and unless you have friends or family who flat out hate chicken, I just know this will be a hit.
I have served this so many times and to some of the pickiest eaters out there, who have insisted that they will not eat left-overs, and they come back for seconds every time.
Here is what you do: Don't throw that chicken away for starters, grab it and these other items and have an excellent afternoon snack! Chicken 1 to 2 cups been cooked and sitting in the refrigerator for almost a week now Celery 1 stick slice it slice it and dice it Onion Use as much as much or little as you like I prefer a sweet onion Pickles I used 2 medium size, sliced them in to 4 sections long ways and diced them Ranch Dressing 2 to 3 table spoons, if you like it really wet add more, really dry, add less Seasoning Salt, pepper, and what ever you like, I added some basil to mine This just couldn't be much easier.
Slice and dice all the ingredients.
I try to cut all my ingredients to the same size or as close as I possibly can.
The chicken can be a bit bigger then all the rest, but I still try and keep it all uniform.
If there is something you don't like, then eliminate it and or substitute something that you do like.
This is just a basic guide, customize it to your taste.
Put it all in a big bowl, add your ranch dressing, I prefer to do the home made kind which consists of Butter Milk, Mayonnaise (Sour Cream is a great low fat substitute), and Hidden Valley Ranch dry powder mix, you can find it in the salad dressing section of your local grocery store.
Now mix it all up and add your spices.
It is that simple.
A little Dijon Mustard isn't to bad in here either.
You can eat it with a fork, make a sandwich with any bread you can find, including pita bread, make a wrap with a tortilla shell or even make an open face melt smothered with cheese and topped off with hot sauce...
Whatever! Good eats and enjoy...
