Nuns' Salad

If you buy a ready cooked chicken, then no cooking skill is necessary to produce this very popular, filling, attractive salad.
This is an English party dish, serves lots.

Ingredients

500 gm	cooked chicken, cubed
12	spring onions, white part only, chopped
500 gm	FAIRTRADE potatoes, peeled, cooked and diced
50 gm	FAIRTRADE raisins
225 gm	large black seedless FAIRTRADE grapes, halved
50 gm	large black olives, halved and stoned
2.5 ml	salt
Large pinch	freshly ground FAIRTRADE black pepper
1	large FAIRTRADE eating apple peeled, cored and diced
175 ml	mayonnaise
FAIRTRADE	Sources Fresh food Grapes Raisins Sultanas Herbs and Spices

Method

Combine the chicken, spring onions, potatoes, raisins, half the grapes, the olives, salt, pepper and apple in a large salad bowl. Pour over the mayonnaise and toss gently but thoroughly.
Arrange the remaining grape halves decoratively over the top.

Variation

None really, but within reason the quantities of ingredients can be varied. No-one has ever complained about extra chicken, or generosity with the raisins or grapes, and this is a good filling salad, and keeps for a day or two if kept covered.
