Toss apple, celery, chicken, grapes and walnuts together. Gently fold into mayo mixture. Chill for 1 hour. Serve cold on bread, crackers or lettuce.

Tips

  • Also makes for a great appetizer served with crackers. We enjoyed it on Toasted Rosemary & Olive Oil crackers.
  • Consume within 4 days of making.
  • Cooked turkey is a great substitute.
  • Croissants are best cut while frozen. Pop cut pieces in the toaster oven on the lowest setting to bring at room temperature.
  • Cut fruit and celery to desired sizes.
  • Increase or omit the apple, celery or grapes as desired.
  • Lemon juice prevents the apple from browning.
  • We keep croissants in our freezer from our favorite local baker.
