Chicken Melon Salad

This is one of my summertime favorites. It's a recipe I got from my Grandmother.

Chicken-Melon Salad

3 cups boiled chicken breast, skin removed and diced
2-1/2 cups seedless white grapes, halved
2 cups diced celery
1-1/2 c Miracle Whip Light (or Free)
2 Tablespoons Milk
1-1/2 teaspoons chili sauce
1-1/2 teaspoons curry powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 cantaloupes
Lettuce Leaves

Early in the day or 2 hours before serving combine chicken, grapes, and celery. With blender at low speed, blend mayo, milk, chili sauce, curry powder, & salt until smooth. Poor over chicken mixture. Mix until well coated. Cover & Chill.

10 minutes before serving, cut melons into wedges--remove seeds and rinds. Place wedges on lettuce leaves on individual serving plates. Spoon Chicken Salad on top of wedges and lettuce.

Serves 6

Serve with hot rolls or assorted crackers.

Sounds very yummy! (I'll leave out the celery, though!) Great posts this week.
