Recipes that make me happy~


Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad~My favorite thing at The Mad Hatter Tea Room in Anoka, MN

2 cups shredded or cubed cooked chicken
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1/4 cup chopped pecans
finely chopped green pepper, to taste
finely chopped onion, to taste
1 - 2 tsp Mad Hatter Spice, to taste*
1 cup mayonnaise

Mix all ingredients together. This is best made 1 day in advance.
*Mad Hatter Spice is available at The Mad Hatter, 1 oz. $4.00

I have eaten this alone in a pretty bowl with no bread, put it on flat bread but the croissant is the best vessel if you want a bread component. So buttery and compliments the chicken sald so well. Happy eating!!!
