Kycklingsallad

This is a Swedish Chicken Salad recipe from my Grandmother, who hunted it down for one of our Swedish feasts we used to have with Great Grandma at Christmas time. It is one of my favorite chicken salads and is an excellent filling for croissants or puff pastry shells. It is light enough for a tea sandwich, or, in a larger serving, hearty enough for a light lunch by itself.

Kycklingsallad
3 cups chopped cook chicken
1 1/2 cups diced celery
1/2 cup diced green pepper (if you've got it)
2 hard cooked eggs, chopped*
4 1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 tsp salt
2 TBSP light cream*
lettuce*

Mix together your chicken, celery, pepper (if you choose), eggs, and lemon juice. Stir the mayonnaise, salt, and cream together. Add the dressing to the chicken mixture and toss it lightly. Serve it on lettuce.

*I omit these.
