Cranberry Chicken Almond Salad

Cranberry Chicken Almond Salad: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

Chicken salad has never been a dish that I have ever felt the need to make. It has always been one of those I can take it or leave it type of dishes. That was until I came across this recipe for it. This recipe looked so delicious with the cranberries and sliced almonds, that I decided to try it for lunch one day. I am so glad I did because it was delicious. I served this as a sandwich, but you could also serve it with some crackers.
