    Hi...
    We had this for dinner a few nights ago. We both had meetings on Wednesday night so I needed a meal I could have early....and this just fit the bill. I made it up early in the day so it was all ready when we needed to eat. It was really yummy too! This would also make a great luncheon for a ladies group too!
    Enjoy!

    Chicken Poppy Seed Salad

    Source: Home Cooking With Trisha Yearwood

    2-1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    4 celery stalks, finely chopped
    4 cups seedless grapes, halved
    2 cups slivered almonds
    2 cups mayonnaise
    1/4 tsp. salt
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    2 Tbs. poppy seeds
    2 Tbs. dried dill
    Mandarin oranges (optional)

    Boil the chicken in a large pot filled with water until done, about 45 minutes.
    Drain the chicken and set aside to cool.
    Once the chicken has cooled, dice it and place it in a large bowl. Add the
    celery, grapes, almonds, mayonnaise, salt, pepper, poppy seeds and dill. Mix
    until the salad is fully combined. I add mandarin oranges if I have them in the
    pantry, just for fun.
    Serves 12
