This is one LOADED Salad. Low in Mayo, but Creamy with hints of sweetness. But it is all of the fruit and veggie goodness added. Apples, Grapes, Celery, Sweet Onion and then the crunch of the nuts. This is the fancy Artisan Salad served up at them fancy Bistros... ENJOY!
And BTW, as healthy as the extras are, this works perfect with a high fiber whole wheat Burrito style wrap!

OK... Here's what I did...
Artisan Chicken Salad with Grapes and Pecans
Ingredients
- 3 Cups White Meat from a Rotisserie Chicken, Diced
- 2 tsp Dijon Mustard
- 1/4 Cup Sour Cream
- 1/4 Cup Cream Cheese (Softened to room temperature)
- 1/4 Cup Mayonnaise
- 2 TBS Honey
- Zest and Juice from 1 Lemon
- 1 tsp Poppy Seeds
- 1 Medium Sweet Onion, diced
- 2 Stalks Celery, diced
- 1 Medium Honey Crisp Apple, Cored and diced
- 1-1/2 Cups Seedless Grapes, sliced in half (or quartered if very large)

Our Costco recently started selling a large container with multiple legs and wings from their rotisserie chickens. I loved that they were using their unsold chickens to make those delicious wraps and soup but they must have had tons of wings and legs left as they only use the breast meat. Such a great bargain but until I saw all the inventive and delicious looking recipes on your blog I would have never bought them! Thank you so much for expanding my previously slim recipe repertoire!!!!
