FL: Your chicken salad does sound great! RD: I like your addition of the pecans. I've used chopped walnuts at times and green or red grapes, cut in half. I've also had it (but never used it myself) with pineapple chuncks. Next time, I'm trying it with the raisins.

I usually cut a pocket pita in half, line it with romaine lettuce and pile in the chicken salad. The family loves it.

We have used pita pockets before too! I forgot about it until you mentioned it, since we haven’t had it that way since last summer.

I have also added grape halves to my chicken salad instead of the raisins or crasins too. It is a great way to use up some of the extra grapes when my husband buys too many at the grocery store!

Pineapple does sound good in chicken salad as well. I have never done it myself, but a friend of mine sometimes adds canned mandarin orange pieces to her chicken salad, or throws them on top as a garnish when she serves it as a salad.
