Amber asked for Chicken Salad the other day for lunch. “But not just boring chicken salad Mom, make it interesting.” So I did some searches and found a recipe to adapt from on WomansDay.com. It seems lighter than a traditional chicken salad due to the sour cream I think, and if you’re like some of my readers who think mayo is of the devil, I would think you could substitute the small amount of that with more sour cream also.
Chicken Salad with Apples & Radishes
Serves 2
Ingredients
1/2 Tbsp. Light Sour Cream
1/4 Tbsp. Mayonnaise
dash of salt and pepper
1 5 oz. can of Chicken Breast, drained
1 Radish, diced
1/8 of a Fuji Apple, diced
1/4 stalk of celery, diced
Directions
Mix together the sour cream and mayo. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in chicken. Add the radishes and the apples. Fold in the celery.
Serve on whole wheat bread if desired or eat it right out of a bowl!

Sounds like a great way to change up a recipe. Radishes would give it a little bite.
I LOVE Chicken salad. Never seen it with radishes though!
Chicken and apples go so nice together!

That looks really good! I love the chicken salad from Costco but I have no idea what's in it.
I've put craisins in my chicken salad, but never radishes. Very interesting.
I love that bit of crunch that radishes lend to something like this. Yum!
This looks like something my teen would love.

Looks yummy! Will have to create it sometime soon for my family.
What an interesting combination! It looks really good and super simple to make.
I adore chicken salad and I bet the radishes would offset the sweet of the apples really well. I am trying this soon.
I don't think I've ever cooked with Radishes == this sounds like a good way to change that track record!
would of never thought to add the radishes that just looks and sounds delicious
I like livening up salad sandwiches but never tried radishes. It sounds interesting.
Chicken salad is a favorite of mine. Love the idea of adding radishes! Going to try this for sure!
Um, who in the world would think that mayo is of the devil?
🙂
What a brilliant idea for a healthy and delicious sandwich!
I love a hint of sweetness in my chicken salad but have never thought to add radishes. I need to give this a go!
I've made it almost like this except with pecans and grapes instead of radishes. I like radishes, so I'll have to give this a try!

I never would have thought to add apples & radishes but it sounds good!
I usually make my chicken salad with Greek Yogurt in place of mayo and/or sour cream.
I love chicken salad an have never seen this combo before but it sounds an looks really good
This looks delish, I would like to say I'd serve it on bread but I'd probably just eat it out of the bowl with a spoon or crackers.
Sounds like a delicious way to make Chicken Salad.
I made this yesterday. It was a big hit with everyone! Thank you for sharing!
This recipe looks interesting. I might use red onion instead of radishes, since I am not a radish fan!
This is a very good recipe. Thank you for sharing it. I never would have thought to put together the apples and radishes, so thank you.
