Cranberry Chicken Salad

The warmer weather has me cooking lighter meals for my family. Chicken Salad is always a great light dinner option. And again something easy to prepare that doesn't take much effort on a busy Friday night when the kids are on their way out to play basketball and headed to a birthday party. I decided to get a little fancy with the chicken salad and snuck in some dried cranberries and poppy seeds. The kiddos loved it, and YAH . . . for me for sneaking in lots of healthy vegetables and fruit! I purchased the roasted chicken and crosaints from Costco. I simply love the croissants when they are super fresh and right out of the bakery, the box was still warm. And I didn't have any waste, I managed to use half the croissants for dinner and used the other half the next morning for toast with a plate of fresh fruit, juice and coffee. As a family on the go, you gotta love easy and simple menu options. I served a light arugula salad with a Dijon vinaigrette as a side and it paired well with the chicken salad. I hope you enjoy this recipe. Stay tuned for more light summer meal options here at Cecelias Good Stuff! Bon Appetit, Cecelia
