  • This chicken salad is amazing, the combination of grapes with pecans, mixed in with a creamy mixture of mayonnaise, dijon mustard and honey go so beautiful with the perfectly juicy chicken. It's so easy to make and always ready to go, you pack it up and take it to work or school and it'll never let you down.

So guess what? you sparked something in me, I'll be heading toward the kitchen with your recipes in tow. Don't change anything in your presentations.

    Rachel, I made your Chicken Salad. I am not a good cook, however, most people think I am because I have to follow a recipe. I made the Chicken Salad for my church's 50's And Above Monthly Gathering. The Chicken Salad was a great hit. Several people asked where was the Chicken Salad. It went quick. I promised to make more for next month. Thank you for your recipes. Thank you for your sunny and delightful personality. You are a wonderful cooking teacher. I look forward to learning more from you. I am 70 years old and I still can learn. God bless you and your husband.

    This is a TRUE Texas lady! (The HEB on her products was a give-away! LOL!). I’m in Houston and it’s the ‘4th of July.’ This is the BEST chicken salad, EVER! All other chicken salad recipes can EXIT the room. We’re preparing Chicken Tinga tacos, but until that’s ready, I’m offering my greedy, hungry family THIS chicken salad on croissants. The bowl is OFFICIALLY empty. Love this lady’s channel!

      🍀 🐿️ I think I'll call Rachael's cooking "Common Sense Cooking.". She knows just when and how to cool things down or heat them up, and when adding ingredients, she doesn't plop them all in one spot. They'll need to be mixed through, so she sprinkles them across the bowl. So many cooks don't. I love her easy-going delivery with an invitation for us to be creative and to tweek her suggestions according to our taste. She's a real treasure❣️🌿

    Your caring demeanor is so inspiring during an era of feminism, where women get criticized for “catering” to their husbands. I love that you prepared yourself a sandwich demonstrating your time preparing food was not solely for him but rather for you both! In addition, you doing your own thing, (cooking, sewing, etc.) while he is golfing, teaches us all much more about relationships than just preparing a scrumptious chicken salad sandwich for Ron! God bless both you and your hubby! “Estómago lleno, corazón contento!”

      Exactly. I like onions in the broth to flavor the chicken while it cooks, but raw onion is a flavor that you either love, or believe it overpowers every dish it's in.

We would go there every other weekend. He even has peaches 🍑 for many years. He had corn, 🌽 watermelons,🍉 peanuts,🥜 cantaloupe, 🍈 peas🌱 and as a kid I thought he raised everything. But he raised cattle, had horses, mules, donkeys but he was best known as a Dairy Farmer. He used to sell his milk 🥛 to Barbers.

    That looks so delish! I have always liked the “Waldorf” chicken salad that has apples in it. I think if I added the apples, I would omit the cranberries. Thank you for this excellent recipe!

    Great video ma’am! First time viewer, and I have to say you have a great knack of explaining why you do things how you do them as you go. Very thorough and also pointing out how a beginner cook can change things up to suit their tastes. Sometimes people need that encouragement to take a recipe and use it as a building block, but feel free to tweak things if you need to or want to.

    We (hubby & I) made my recipe for chicken salad with grapes & pecans for lunch today. He chopped, while I made the dressing. When we went to get some more out for dinner, it looked like the dressing had been completely absorbed, so I whipped up a half batch of your dressing, and threw in a handful of dried cranberries. It was excellent! So flavorful - I'm throwing out my old, family-favorite recipe for yours, dear Rachel. So yummy!

    Thank you for the recipe Rachel❤❤ I made this for my grandkids this past summer in our Hawaii vacation md they loved it so much I had to triple the recipe because all the adults wanted some too! It was so refreshing and needless to say they kept asking for me to make it until I told them I’ll show them how to make it for themselves so Mama ( me😅) can relax too. PS: The pizza casserole dish, broccoli chicken casserole were another hit too when I made them while visiting them in their homes. I also told my daughters to watch your cooking shows so they can learn how to make them…..Yes, but Mama, they whined, It’s not the same because you’re making it with love❤❤❤ like Rachel does! 😂😂

    • @HTNPSullivan
      @HTNPSullivan Před 2 lety +3

      @@sammyjo8109 When cooking for a get together, it's probably a good idea not to add nuts to anything simply because so many people seem to have nut allergies. Cooking for yourself, you could substitute the pecans with walnuts, nicely chopped up. Waldorf salads have walnuts and apples and a lot of people love this salad.

My granddaughter, when she was about 7 yrs old..we would always video ourselves cooking in my kitchen..one day months later, my husband said..do u know anything about this…my darling was video herself baking…I kept thinking..I thought I had more eggs..milk?? And a messy kitchen..I thought..dang my husband is a slob….she would add her ingredients, did the taste test, make a face..throw in the sink..start all over…clock showed 1 am..hubby asleep on sofa, me in my bedroom…aww so priceless..I will forever cherish that memory..

My French grandmother was a great example of the blend of French/Italian. Thank you so much - I am so glad I found you. Some "accidents" are wonderful and bring you "home" again.
    And I should thank my dear mother, too, for keeping it alive in her kitchen when I was growing up in NJ. I'll be back again; with my shopping list.
