Our niece Anna Claire's birthday party was this afternoon at the park around the corner from our house. My aunt and grandmother came in town to celebrate, so I had our family over for lunch before the festivities. This has been a crazy week at work, so I haven't had a lot of time for cooking; so whatever I served had to be super-simple. (Full disclosure: Since we returned from vacation on Sunday, I haven't been to the grocery store. I finally went this morning.) Anyway, for lunch we had Honey Chicken Salad and Grilled Potato Salad. My mom brought fruit and Mel brought cheese curls. It's been a while since I've made this chicken salad, which ran in SL about three years ago. It is outstanding! The combination of mayo and honey is just right; the honey keeps the salad from tasting too mayonnaise-y like it sometimes can. The only thing I did differently is that I used sliced almonds instead of pecans.
