3 cups cooked diced chicken
1 1/2 cups seedless grapes, cut in half
3/4 cup celery, sliced
1/3 cup green onions w/tops, thinly sliced
2 Granny Smith apples (if you like a sour zing), or 2 red apples (go on and pick your favorite)
1/3 cup pecans or cashew halves,
Croissants (the best are from costco or sams club)

In small bowl, blend mayo, yogurt, curry powder and salt; set aside.Dice chicken and cut grapes. Core and slice apples, cut into small pieces. Chop pecans or half cashews. Combine chicken, grapes, celery, green onions, apples and nuts in large bowl. Add mayo mixture; mix lightly. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight. Cut croissant in half and fill with salad mixture. Or you can serve it on a bed of lettuce.

Oh my goodness how I love this recipe! Unfortunately we ate them so fast we forgot to take a picture. This is a fantastic dish to serve at a summer picnic or a wedding/baby shower. Even my kids can't get enough.
