This recipe is perfect as a light Spring or Summer meal, and use low-fat mayo to lighten it even further.

You will need:

4 cups diced, cooked chicken

1 – 15 oz. can Pineapple Chunks (drained)

1 cup chopped celery

1 – 22 oz. can mandarin oranges (drained)

½ cup chopped green pepper

2 Tablespoons grated onion

1 cup mayo

1 Tablespoon prepared mustard

1 – 5 oz. can chow mein noodles

½ cup black olives

lettuce

Combine chicken, celery, olives, pepper & onion. Blend mayo & mustard. Toss gently with chicken mixture, cover & chill for several hours.

Before serving, add pineapple, mandarin oranges & noodles.  I purchase 2 different sizes of chow-mein noodles, mixing the larger ones into the salad and sprinkling the new miniature version on top of the salad before serving.

Serve in lettuce-lined bowl.

SERVES 8.

Bon Appetit!
