Fabulous Chicken Salad

I found another chicken salad recipe to try in one of my ( way to many) cookbooks...this time it has pineapple in it...along with some light cream. Other recipes I have do not use either if these ingredients. I make chicken salad often, using up leftover chicken ,as it makes such a quick and easy lunch for the next day. I have to say it's a favorite any time of the year, but we like it especially on a hot summer day. I look forward to sitting in the deck...hopefully soon....eating lunch on a bright, sunny day!

We really enjoyed the addition of pineapple, and the cream did add a rich flavor. My favorite on any chicken salad are the almonds, I like the added toasty, crunchy texture. Now I just need that sun!
