Recipe: Tasty Crunchy Cranberry Chicken Salad Delicious, fresh and tasty.

Crunchy Cranberry Chicken Salad. Chicken salad might as well be a food group in the South — it will be a dark day when a celebratory shower menu is without it. After that it's rather flexible, but there must be an adequate ratio of sweet, savory, crunchy, and soft. Fruit is always fabulous, so for this batch I used a mix of dried cranberries.

Chicken salad often finds its way to my summer menus, served on greens or a croissant.

I think this one is just a little special.

It's sweet and juicy from the apples and grapes, a little savory from the tarragon, crunchy from the pecans and celery, and lightened up a bit with some yogurt.
