“A flavorful blend of chicken, fruit, lemon, and ginger makes for a light and delicious chicken salad. This salad is perfect for special occasions, but easy enough to make at home any day. Serve it in a halved cantaloupe for a fabulous presentation!” - by Sue

Spoon into cantaloupe halves to serve.

"I didn't have sour cream so I used vanilla yogurt, didn't have grapes so I used kiwi, didn't have celery so I used 1/4 t celery seed, didn't have lemon so I used lemon juice. I cooked some breaded chi..." See morecken tenders I had in the freezer and cut them up for "chicken". I wanted to make sure my family ate the cantaloupe and didn't just eat out of it, so I cut the cantaloupe in chunks and mixed with dressing mixture .Served it on a bed of fresh spinach along side French bread and with soup."
