Easy and Yummy Chicken Salad

So I was looking for ways to make my husband's lunch a bit better than just a bologna sandwich when I decided on this! He loves chicken salad (and I do too) but its annoying when you go out and buy it because its never just right..this recipe was a God-send! It came from Cooks.com, but I added in a little of my own. This salad would best be enjoyed on a croissant! MMmm!
