Toasted Pecan Chicken Salad

Toasted Pecan Chicken Salad – A traditional chicken salad with the addition of toasted pecans for extra depth of flavor.

I just found this recipe while looking for a good chicken salad. Made it for a work birthday party. It was a hit. Added chopped green onions as well. This is awesome!
