POPPY SEED CHICKEN SALAD-Heather


I just came up with this recipe as I was wanting a light chicken salad to go into small little phyllo cups for an appetizer at a bridal shower. These were a big hit.
  • chicken breasts: boil, cool and shred
    toasted slivered almonds
    chopped celery
    craisins
    poppyseed dressing
    • I just boiled up as much chicken as I needed. I eyeballed the rest- enough craisins to make it look pretty, enough almonds and celery for a good crunch and dressing to moisten.
  • Poppyseed Dressing
    • 1/3 c. sugar
      1/2 c. white vinegar
      1 tsp. salt
      1 tsp. ground dry mustard
      1 tsp. grated onion
      1 c. oil
      1 Tbl. poppy seeds
  • Combine first four in blender or food processor , slowly add oil, then stir in poppy seeds.
