Family, friends and good food are the foundations of our lives. We celebrate with them, mourn with them and nothing can bring us comfort more than a steaming bowl of soup or a slice of chocolate cake except for the love of our family and friends...

TROPICAL CHICKEN SALAD


Small Palm along the coast of South Carolina


2 cups cooked boneless chicken cut into cubes or chunks
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 tsp of McCormick’s Caribbean Jerk Seasoning
juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 to 3/4 cup mayonnaise
salt and pepper to taste
1 small can crushed pineapple—drained

I like to use grilled chicken or left-over rotisserie chicken for this recipe. Simply mix all of the ingredients in bowl. Let chill and serve with your favorite crackers. Seasonings may be adjusted to taste and for a crunchier version just add 1/4 cup of celery finely chopped.

Serving suggestions:

For a small party you may place this in a mound along with a selection of grapes and crackers on the same platter. Or fill small croissants or party shells with salad and arrange on tray. Also wonderful served on a bed of crisp lettuce with either crackers or dinner roll.
