Chicken Salad
6 large chicken breasts, cooked and diced
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup diced celery
1/4 cup diced green onions
3/4 roasted silvered almonds
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup Lighthouse Ranch dressing
1 cup mayonnaise
Combine all ingredients, except nuts. Add nuts just before serving. Tastes great on croissants.
Serves 8
Notes: This is a recipe from Ann Hansen, a woman from Dan's ward growing up. The recipe says it serves 8 but it actually makes a lot and probably serves more. I usually use the large frozen chicken breasts from Costco, and only use 4, I think 3 lbs of chicken is a good equivalent. Am I the only one that hates recipes that require a lot of salt and don't at least give you a bench mark in the recipe? I usually use about 1 tsp, but it definitely doesn't taste right without salt, so you might want to play around with it.
