Curry Chicken Salad {Another Favorite for a Baby Shower!}

Curry Chicken Salad is the perfect salad to serve at a baby shower, brunch, or an afternoon tea.  It is a popular salad for entertaining. My daughter adores this recipe. I am continuing the post from last week on my daughter's favorite food we served at her baby shower.  You may have seen the picture on  Facebook announcing the arrival of my newest grandson. I love being a Grandma! This salad is so versatile to serve.  It can be served cold on a bed of lettuce with crackers…wrapped in a flour tortilla…or serve it on croissants like we did at my daughter's baby shower.   You make the salad with a roasted chicken, water chestnuts, celery, slivered almonds, red grapes, and dressed in a delectable curry dressing that keeps you wanting to come back for another bite.   Curry Chicken Salad is the perfect make ahead salad for any entertaining.  I make it the night before so the flavors marry together, and the curry stands out  better.  Make plenty

Lemon Blueberry Squash Bread

Lemon Blueberry Squash Bread , fresh lemon juice, and zest, luscious blueberries combined with shredded yellow squash are the perfect ingredients for a summer quick bread.
