Excellent! My husband & I really liked this. Made a few adjustments though. I used seasoned cooked chicken (3 small chicken breasts) rather than canned and toasted the almonds--brought out the flavor better! Since I couldn't find the dressing, I used Mayonnaise instead. I added enough to make a smooth consistency (about 3/4 cup). Also omitted celery since I don't like it. Really good recipe!

I did not have the cucumber salad dressing, grapes or the almonds on hand. So I omitted the almonds, and substituted with raisins and miracle whip instead. I also added a few shakes of curry powder. It still came out great, and makes a great lunch to take to work.

Nice twist on chicken salad, however if I were going to go so far as to call it "gourmet" I wouldn't used canned chicken... I opted to use some leftover citrus grilled chicken I had on hand. I also used some red grapes for a little color. I didn't have cucumber salad dressing so I used Hellman's light mayo cut with a bit of sour cream and added a bit of salt, pepper and just a bit of curry powder. Overall, very good on toasted whole grain bread.

This was a really great recipe, although the chicken from the can was a little salty. Next time I am going to use fresh chicken.

I made this for lunch for my toddler and I. (He picked out and only ate the oranges) This was so good I had to call my husband at work to tell him about it. I also used mayo instead of cucumber dressing and I omitted the almonds. Fantabulous!

The best chicken salad I've ever had. Made my own cucumber dressing with half a finely chopped cucumber, a cup of plain yogurt, a garlic clove, a teaspoon of lemon juice, a pinch of salt, and about a half a teaspoon of pepper. Blended it all together, and it was phenomenal!

This was very good. I made it with ranch dressing and mayo and left out the nuts because we have some picky eaters. Then I rolled it up in Tortillas with letuce. A nice change
