Very quick and easy to put together, and very tasty. Used fresh bing cherries (summer availability) cut in half rather than dried. Husband who has been known to turn his nose up at "chicken anything" even devoured his meal. Served it on lettuce leaf along with dinner rolls. Plan to make it again for lunch guests in a few weeks.<\/p>","CommentId":12,"DateRated":"07\/19\/2011 19:28","GUID":"5AF0D8AAA8144F339E1B0FC56793D3B1","MemberId":393516,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Judy1544","SubmittedDate":"07\/19\/2011 19:28"},{"Comment":"

I have made this recipe so many times, but have never rated it on TOH. This is the best chicken salad I have ever had. My husband and children love it. It is easy and tasty. It tastes better after it has been in the fridge a while, so, if there are any leftovers, they're better than the original. I always use cherry-flavored craisins instead of cherries, and I often use butter crackers, like Ritz, instead of the croissants. I have never served it to anyone who disliked it.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"01\/21\/2011 17:14","GUID":"43ba43db42564f08b97ff68c2736fdd2","MemberId":3470808,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"yekcirt","SubmittedDate":"01\/21\/2011 17:13"},{"Comment":"

Tasty when you want a homemade chicken salad. The dried cherries add a nice flavor to the salad.<\/p>","CommentId":14,"DateRated":"10\/25\/2010 23:51","GUID":"da3d092d93264fc8aebce2a6bdef4885","MemberId":1280393,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"kneel4fun","SubmittedDate":"10\/25\/2010 23:51"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":15,"DateRated":"06\/10\/2009 18:20","GUID":"8f2da1331c884966b979f4988be3b299","MemberId":3135536,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"joankostac","SubmittedDate":"06\/10\/2009 18:20"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":16,"DateRated":"04\/02\/2009 06:37","GUID":"B909D4BB8D614854B1F02051454C7259","MemberId":1603334,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"jojo1961","SubmittedDate":"04\/02\/2009 06:37"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":17,"DateRated":"12\/26\/2008 13:01","GUID":"c8b0c3cf54734e91bdf91994be4ca8f8","MemberId":3721583,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"mamasuarez","SubmittedDate":"12\/26\/2008 13:01"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":18,"DateRated":"10\/06\/2008 19:30","GUID":"20f299bed2e245c79dae0892ff5064c0","MemberId":1050526,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"jcraig17","SubmittedDate":"10\/06\/2008 19:30"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":19,"DateRated":"09\/08\/2008 11:37","GUID":"eb4922e7e1c3439a909cca383c613637","MemberId":2008837,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"norma7","SubmittedDate":"09\/08\/2008 11:37"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":20,"DateRated":"09\/02\/2008 13:48","GUID":"f66bd452823a477dacb621fa3ec50e47","MemberId":1561976,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Heather_Ward","SubmittedDate":"09\/02\/2008 13:48"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
