Ingredients

1 rotisserie chicken, skin removed, meat torn in chunks, about 2 1/2 cups in all. (Grandma would poach a chicken for her salads, I'm just going to buy one to save time)

1 cup diced celery

1 tsp of salt

3/4 tsp of pepper

3 tbsp of chopped candied ginger

1 1/2 tsp of honey

1 cup of commercial sour cream

I love how old recipes call for commercial sour cream, as if we are expected to know how to make our own sour cream these days.

Garnishes, ripe bananas, sliced canned pineapple, chopped cashews, bed of tender lettuce

Directions

Combine chicken, celery, salt and pepper in a bowl. Chill fo two hours. Just before serving combine ginger, honey and sour cream. Stir half the dresssing into the chicken mixture.

Serve in a scoop on lettuce leaves,

Arrange sliced bananas around the scoop, top with a pineapple slice, sprinkle very generously with chopped toasted cashews.

Drizzle with remaining dressing as desired.
