Understandable. If we don't keep out priorities in line they will trip
us up,

I don't watch much as a solo. In company, that's a different deal.
If by myself I druter read a book. With the Kindle and Book Bub I have
quite the library ro keep me entertained.

Or make a batch of turkey salad using a chicken salad recipe. Darn, now
I'm jonesing for some of my favourite chicken salad.
Fortunately GFS has their rotisserie chickens on sale for U$3 ea.

Title: Arby's Grilled Chicken & Pecan Salad
Categories: Poultry, Fruits, Nuts, Citrus
Yield: 4 Servings
1 c Diced red apple *
1 tb Lemon juice
2 1/2 c Grilled chicken breast;
- diced 1/4"
1 c Halved grapes
1/2 c Chopped celery
1 c Chopped pecans
1/2 c (to 3/4 c) mayonnaise
Salt & pepper
Lettuce leaves; opt
Thick-sliced wheat bread;
- opt
* I used a "Cosmic Crisp" apple which worked nicely.
I have also used shredded rotissiere chicken. -- UDD
Place the diced apples in a medium-sized bowl. Add one
tablespoon of lemon juice and stir to coat the apples to
prevent them from turning brown.
Add the chicken, grapes, celery, and pecans to the bowl
and mix well.
Add 1/2 cup mayonnaise and stir to combine. If the
mixture is too dry you can add another 1/4 cup of
mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Allow the flavors to marry in a covered bowl in the
refrigerator for about 1 hour before serving.
If you would like to serve the chicken salad as a
sandwich, place about 1 cup of chicken salad and a few
lettuce leaves between two thick slices of wheat bread.
NOTES: While Arby's does not toast their pecans, you
could easily bring this salad to the next level by
toasting the pecans in a skillet on medium-high heat
until fragrant. Allow the pecans to cool completely
before adding them to the salad.
