My Favorite Chicken Salad

Okay...so IT Guy likes plain chicken salad. And by plain, I mean plain. And boring. He prefers canned chicken mixed with some mayo and some Lawry's Seasoning Salt. That's it. No celery, no onion. See? I told you it was plain and boring. Me? Well...I'm about making chicken salad a party! Some fresh, cooked chicken, some mayo, grapes, pecans...you get the idea. When we lived a California, a friend and I would frequent this little cafe where they served THEEEE best chicken salad ever. And it was served on purple bread. Yep...purple! That was my intro to fancy chicken salad and I've never turned back. This can be served on yummy bread, scooped with crackers or wrapped in a lettuce leaf. Super good any way you choose!
