Easy Chicken Salad

Matthew was the inspiration for this one! He made a delicious chicken salad for Sunday dinner one day and I was in love. It was such a hit he wouldn't even let me take any left overs home. Meany! Easy Chicken Salad 1 Rotisserie Chicken, cooled, skinned, de-boned and cubed ½ medium onion diced ½-1 Granny Smith apple diced 3-4 celery stocks diced ¼ cup slivered almonds ¾ - 1 cup Mayo ½ cup light sour cream 1-2 tablespoons dried dill (to taste) Salt and Pepper to taste Mix all ingredients on a bowl. Chill. Enjoy! Notes: We have also used grapes instead of apples. I also like to add diced tomatoes once and a while. Chopped olives and dill pickles also make a nice addition.
