One of my favorite salads is The Chicken Salad. Easy to prepare and loved by all. With warm weather upon us, this classic recipe is "a must" and great to serve on bread or lettuce leaves as a fantastic lunch. The bacon adds the wow factor. Enjoy!

WOW, Marky! This one rocks!--Kn0x--


Yum, yum, YUM! Fab-u-lous flavour combo, thanx for sharing!! :-)


There's always so many recipes for chicken salad,but this one really sounds so good & different. I wonder if turkey bacon would work?
Jett


I like the idea of crumbling pieces of bacon throughout the salad!


I like this, and sounds delicious.


Oh Yeah!! LOVE it!


Bet this would be good on toasted bread with a spread of cream cheese added to one side of the bread. But it looks great as you have submitted. I have to try this out on my son then next time I pack his lunch for work.


I have to say thank you, thank you and thank you. I once had a chicken salad that had bacon in it and I never could find one that was close to it. This is it I think. Yay!

It is super yummy and the only way to have chicken salad in my opinin. :D


I'm always looking for a new chicken salad with a twist...this is a good one. Lots of bang with the bacon, water chesnuts & ginger! Thanks!


I made this today and it is a 5'er!


Looks super!
