Recipe inspired by Waldron Astoria's famous recipe, but I tweaked it a bit.

This is a spin on a classic Waldorf salad, but with the added protein of chicken and served over romaine to make it into a hearty lunch. I also put together a creamy poppy seed dressing for this, rather than using mayo only, which is what a traditional Waldorf salad is tossed with. I generally eat salads at work, so I usually pack my salads up in a quart sized mason jar to easily take it with me. Recipe loosely adapted from : The Domestic Geek

Easy lunch option!

The original version was introduced on March 14, 1896. It was created at The Waldorf-Astoria hotel for a charity ball given in honor of the St. Mary's Hospital for Children. The original recipe was just apples, celery, and mayonnaise. Over the years it has evolved into many different ways to prepare and to eat. Here is my version.

Here’s a little bit of trivia for you: this dish has been around for much longer than you might think. It first appeared in the 19th century and was created by Oscar Tschirky, maître d'hôtel of the Waldorf Astoria hotel, as a specialty dish for its opening. It quickly became popular among the jet set of New York. Our recipe is served alongside a yogurt dressing made with EVOO from Spain!

I absolutely love chicken salad, and I am always experimenting with new recipes! This is one I threw together last night, using ingredients I had on hand. Turned out pretty well!

A super lunch. This salad is perfect for any occasion and very easy to make. Talk about delicious and satisfying.

This is a classic basic chicken salad. The chicken is the feature. It’s roasted chicken to a perfect moist juicy start and then just some seasoning and mayonaise for really flavorful chicken salad. I served it here in pita bread but it's great in a salad or on toasted bread or a soft roll.

Sam wanted chicken salad so we did some thorough research on youtube and landed on this little gem. Enjoy!
