After coming home from a grocery store, I realized that I bought the wrong kind of chicken meat for my soup. I always use dark meat for making chicken bouillon, soup or borscht, but had purchased chicken breasts. So, to make more tasty, I put a little more of the meat than usual in the water. After I had fed my family the soup, there was still plenty of chicken at the bottom of the pan. No one in my family eats boiled chicken meat, so I came up with a good idea! I made a healthy delicious salad with it. My husband taught me how to make this Chicken Almond salad a few years ago, when he was trying to lose some weight. The salad is tasty and it has good proteins and vitamins. Here is the recipe for it…
Chicken Almond Salad
2 cups cooked chopped chicken
2 cups chopped apples
¾ cups sliced almonds
½ cups mayonnaise
Combine chicken, apples, and almonds in a large bowl. Add mayonnaise and mix with a spoon. There you have it! You can always put more apples if you want it sweeter or more almonds if you want it crunchier or more mayonnaise if you want it creamier.
Bon appetite!

I am not a mayonnaise fan but this actually looks super-nummy. Like a previous poster said, the pics look great! I haven’t learned the skill of photographing food yet.
