Mom's Chicken Salad


This recipe comes from Mom (Tauna).  Who doesn't love cold chicken salad on a croissant in the summertime??

1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple
1 (11 oz.) can mandarin oranges
2 c. diced, cooked chicken  (about 3 ½ breasts)
½ c. mayonnaise
¼ tsp. salt
½ c. sliced celery
1 c. slivered almonds
1 Tbsp. minced green onion

Drain fruit well.  Combine all ingredients except fruit and almonds and chill.  Add fruit last.  Toast almonds 20 minutes at 300°.  Add fruit and almonds before serving.   Makes 6 servings.
