CONTEST-WINNING HOT CHICKEN SALAD



Contest-Winning Hot Chicken Salad image

After I tasted this hot chicken salad at a women's luncheon, I left with the recipe in hand. I was our city clerk for several years, and on election days I brought this to serve our poll workers for lunch. It got everyone's vote of approval! I've found it is also delicious stuffed in a tomato. -Ruth Glabe, Oronoco, Minnesota
