Chicken And Fruit Salad Recipe


Chicken And Fruit Salad Recipe
This is another one from the old Sunset salad book from 1975, It is falling apart and the price tag, still on the cover, says $2.20! Now that the weather has gotten so hot, it seemed like time to bring out the main dish cold salad recipes!
