Previous Good Eatin’ Recipes:
There is a local cafe that serves a to-die-for Chicken Salad with grapes and pecans on a flaky, buttery croissant. Every chance I get to eat there, I order this chicken salad and I am now on a quest to recreate their recipe. This is the first recipe that I found, so join me on my journey to find the perfect deluxe chicken salad recipe.
