2 for 1 Chicken Salad recipes

"Perkins" Chicken Salad

This is a "green salad", with lettuce, tomatoes, snap peas, avocados, celery, onion, green pepper, carrots, etc., Cook two or three chicken breast patties in the microwave according to package directions. Allow them to cool slightly, and slice into 1/2" strips. Add to top of salad. Serve with dressing.

(This is called "Perkins" Chicken Salad, because it is similar to what is served in the Perkins restaurant.

These are two very popular salads in our home, and my kids often refer to chicken patties as "chicken with fur on it." Lol!
