I like grapes and a little curry in my chicken salad, but next time I'll be trying apples! Your pictures are great. Everything looks so appetizing.
ReplyDeleteMy eight-year-old will only eat Granny Smiths!
ReplyDeleteI never thought of putting apples in chicken salad but it sounds really good!
ReplyDeleteI have not eaten one in a very long time.
ReplyDeleteI think it is time now...
They will be at the top of my shopping list... I havent had one in a long time and I will definitely try some in my chicken salad....
ReplyDeletemmmm I believe I could taste that!
ReplyDeleteWhen my son was small, this was the only apple he'd eat. I'll have to try it in a chicken salad - sounds delicious.
I love apples and grapes in my chicken salad. Can't get enough :)
ReplyDeletehugs,
Laura
I like most all apples. especially the Pink Lady ones. The "dart" circles look nice on your blog.
ReplyDeleteHi BJness! Oh, I love me some apples and these are beauts! I love apples in my chicken and tuna fish salads. I've been eating the honey crisps but I think they're done as there weren't any at the grocery store today.
ReplyDeleteHope your New Year is off to a good start.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
These are the only apples we truly love to eat and bake with. Yum! And your pictures capture their goodness perfectly!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great weekend...wait, it's only Friday...
XO,
Jane
LOVE Granny Smiths - always a crisper full of them - no smoke and mirrors! :-) Happy Weekend, B - Tanya
ReplyDeleteI think I love you because you have some silly in you-cuz I know I have some silly in me and I want to be just like you when I grow up!;>) I love apples in chicken salad, too! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteAnd they're such a wonderful shade of green. I will try putting them in my chicken salad. I've got some all made up minus the apple.
ReplyDeleteLove Chicken salad and put a lot of stuff in it ... finely chopped chicken, walnuts or pecans, diced apples and grapes. I think I added some celery this last time.
ReplyDeleteSalt and pepper and salad dressing. Yum. You make yours look so pretty. Will try the Granny Smith apples next time.

A friend in Georgia used to make her chicken salad with apples and walnuts. I don't eat meat anymore but sure do like the looks of everything else. Very healthy indeed! Have a wonderful weekend. Tammy
ReplyDeleteThey're pretty darn good in a pie too! Just sayin':@)... Have a great weekend BJ!
ReplyDeleteIt's early morning and you got me smilin' all the way through the post because your mirror play was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGranny smiths are my favorite. I love the taste and the look.
ReplyDeleteI do love me some chicken salad.and even better with granny smith.

-chuckle- Her White Look, is back. :-) Well, you got the more complicated look, out of your system. :-)
ReplyDeleteA possibility... Next time you have a super big pic (like the fireplace), perhaps you could put that as Header. But keep the rest of your blog look, white/plain?
The best of both worlds. White background! Grrrreat pic!
Just a possibility. :-)

I will have one of those sandwiches, PLEASE! My favorite! Have a blessed day dear BJ, I love playing too:)
ReplyDeleteThe apples and the sandwich looks so delicious. Have a blessed day. Madeline
ReplyDeleteEverything looks yummy! I like to eat my apples with peanut butter. So good! Hope you have a nice weekend :)
ReplyDeleteYes I love the sharp taste
ReplyDeleteand crispness!!
They are also great for decorating with and do you remember little apple people that were baked out of granny smith apples. They came out looking like rinkley seniors...
I think I'll place an order too! Your picture of the chicken salad plate looks delicious. We also use apples and sometimes grapes in our chicken salad and vary pecans with walnuts on occasion.
ReplyDeleteAs for being silly, my opinion is that everyone is a little 'weird' and its that 'weirdness' that makes them more interesting and fun. My son used to say "My mom is weird, she loves 'rocks'!" ... and I do.
I am on my way save me a bite! A lovely plate. Thanks for sharing. You always Bless my morning.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day,
Sherry
Just the way I love my chicken salad. Maybe I'll make some today.. yummy!!
ReplyDeleteThose apples are such a pretty color BJ. I love chicken salad!
ReplyDeleteboy, there for a minute I thought you were full of magic getting those apples to stack that high and not topple over. Just goes to show you that you should read as well as look, right?
ReplyDeleteBJ,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Granny Smith Green apples..the shape...the hue...the taste!!!
Fondly,
Pat
I like to put chopped Granny Smith's in my tuna salad. Yum!
ReplyDeleteBig Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
Hi bj, I gotta laugh because Granny Smith apples are my fave. I love the tartness of them. Don't bother giving me a red delicious apple. I do not like them at all. Your chicken salad looks good enough to eat. Smile.
ReplyDeleteLove, Jeanne
That looks SO good! I just had Cape Cod Chicken Salad the other night ... mm mm good!!!... Donna
ReplyDeleteI have had a good Granny Smith kind of day. And, you always make my day.♥
ReplyDeleteNow I'm hungry, BJ! That's not fair. I love the green of Granny Smith apples - it's such a perfect shade.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining in this week!

Hone Crisps are my fav but so hard to get after its 2 month run here. Need some grapes in that salad, too. Looks deelish. You make such beauty out of fun, BJ.
ReplyDeleteTTFN ~

You're making me hungry, BJ!! Hope you have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing better than looking at the lovely colour of a Granny Smith is eating it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite snack is slices of Granny Smiths with sharp cheddar cheese! mmmgood! Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteHi BJness. I love apples and Honey Crisps are my favs. But can't can't them anymore. Now what have I missed? You've changed your blog name? I've been so busy here lately and haven't visited like I would like to.
ReplyDeleteBe a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Oh yes...I love them in my chicken salad too:)
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Linda
You're making me hungry! I love them in chicken salad too.
ReplyDeleteThey are my daughter's favorite and one day we went for a weekend out and when arriving to the Hotel she let go a "OMG" so loud that people - and us - turned to see what the comotion was about.
ReplyDeleteThere, in the lobby of the Hotel, there were huge - gigantic - two topiaries filled with Granny Smith... the poor dear must've thought she was in Heaven ahahahah
Wishing you a Happy and Fun week,
Teresa
I agree, we need to play a little bit every day! And eat a good lunch. :-)
