Chicken Salad Crossiants


I don't know about you but during the summer all I want to eat are salads, fresh fruits, and sandwiches. I love a good chicken salad sandwich and have found that their are so many recipes for them. Here is a version we love. This recipes is great to serve for a large group.

10 Chicken Breasts boiled in the following:
1 Celery Heart
1 Onion Sliced
1 Bay Leaf
2 Whole Cloves

Boil chicken until done, then cut into bite size pieces.

Mix together:
1-8oz. cream cheese
1 cup. mayo
3 green onions, minced
1 cup sweet pickles, chopped ( save juice)

Add the following to the chicken mixture:
1 med. can pineapple chunks, drained
1 med. can mandarian oranges
2 cups red and green grapes
1 1/2 cups chopped cashews
Pickle juice to thin mixture a little.

Stir altogether in a large bowl and serve in croissants
