Oh, this is the perfect Summer chix salad! I'm trying it this week. We don't have Duke's mayo up here, is it better than Hellmans?

Rachel, you've taken this next level by putting the salad on these pretty croissants. I'm definitely going to give this recipe a try.

I will have to skip the almonds (nut allergy in the family), but I know it will still be delicious.

Happy weekend to you. xoxo
