Wilma makes a Hot Chicken Salad
This particular dish is a bit confusing to me. Is it a salad? Is it a casserole? What's the difference? I'll give you the details, and you can decide.
2 cups of cooked, shredded chicken I roasted 2 bone-in chicken breasts.
3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup of chopped celery
2 t minced onions I used more
1/2 cup chopped or slivered almonds I used a pre-slivered package that claimed to have about 1/3 cup
1 t lemon juice
1 cup crushed potato chips
3/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise
salt and pepper to taste
Mix all ingredients together (except potato chips) and top with crushed potato chips. Bake at 350 deg. F for 45-60 minutes.
Serves 4-6
So, there it is in the picture with a crescent roll and a jello salad that Wilma will be sharing with you next week. The general consensus of the family is casserole, and the whole thing looks a lot like a "ladies who lunch" menu. Not my favorite, but not bad either.
In other news, I've asked my mom for some more pictures of Wilma, preferably pre-1960. She's a little confused about the whole blog thing in the first place, but we'll see what she comes up with.
Aren't salads supposed to be cold or at most lukewarm? What I always wonder about - why do so many American casserole recipes call for crushed potato chips on top? Your recipes always have me running to the kitchen for food - even if I only ate a short while ago!
