Recipe Tips

  • If you do not want to drain your pineapple you don't need to, but you will need to reduce the amount of mayonnaise by at least a tablespoon.
  • Store the chicken salad in the refrigerator in a sealed container.  It will last for about 2-3 days.
  • If you are going to freeze the chicken salad, do not mix in the mayo until you are ready to eat.
  • Chicken salad can be served hot or cold.  This recipe is cold but you can use warm chicken for the salad.
  • You can serve this chicken salad alone, with crackers, on a sandwich, or you could get fancy and stuff it inside of cream puff shells for a party.
