“A good use for leftover chicken. You can substitute other melons, papaya, pineapple, mushrooms, or water chestnuts for the grapes or the honeydew melon.” - by jen

6 cups cubed, cooked chicken meat
2 cups chopped celery
2 cups seedless grapes
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 1/2 teaspoons curry powder
salt and pepper to taste

"So tasty but be warned - this is a tasty dish to take to a pot luck dinner but don't volanteer to take anything else. Here in NZ, we paid $6 for the melon, $16 for the chicken, $4 for the sour cream a..." See morend $5 for the plain yoghurt. $4 for the celery, $4 for the grapes. This means a total of $41 dollars. But, then I saw how many people it was for (10) and then that works out at 4.10 per person."

"I love this recipe. I make it without the water chestnuts because my husband doesn't like them and it is still wonderful. Great salad for lunches!..." See more"
