Ingredients
  

  • 2 10-ounce cans chunk chicken, drained and flaked
  • 1 cup halved seedless red grapes
  • 1 cup halved seedless green grapes
  • 1 cup sliced celery
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 2 teaspoons dried chives
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine chicken, red grapes, green grapes, celery, dried cranberries, and chives.
  • In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  • Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
  • Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for the flavors to meld.
  • Serve on bread, in wraps, or over fresh lettuce.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, add chopped pecans or almonds.
  • Freshly cooked shredded chicken works beautifully in place of canned.
  • Adjust sweetness by adding more or less honey.
  • If you prefer a lighter version, use half mayonnaise and half plain Greek yogurt.
