Question by misscassie1226: refreshing meals? also, chicken salad recipe?
Now that the weather is warming up, I am looking for some more “lighter” meals than what I cook in the winter. What do you enjoy during the summer for dinners? Also, I am trying to find a chicken salad sandwich recipe, one that uses apples not walnuts. I think it also had celery too.

Answer by lemonlimesherbet
cut up cooked chicken (baked or poached), finely diced celery, sweet or dill pickles fine diced, a quarter of a red onion finely diced, sliced almonds are optional. Add mayo to taste and peeled or not diced apples the firmer baking type will be tarte , add more flavor and less liquid to the salad than an eating variety. Try Granny Smiths. Salt and peper to taste you can also use celery salt for additional flavor rather than plain salt.

I enjoy grilled food for summer. Grilled salmon pasted with lemon juice and seasoned with lemon pepper. I love grilled chicken. Hamburgers, Beef Hotdogs, and Mac & Cheese are also really good for summer.
