Notes
Walnut substitution: Not a fan of walnuts? You can use slivered or sliced almonds, or chopped pecans, instead. For a nut-free version, use sunflower seeds in place of the walnuts, so you still have that awesome crunch.
For a mayo-free version, try sour cream or Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
Mix it up! Fruits are great in chicken salad- try using dried apricots, chopped apples, or even strawberries in place of the grapes.
Storage: store in an airtight container in your fridge for about 3 days.
