This is great for baby showers, just spread the chicken on mini-croissants or thinly sliced white & wheat bread.

Recipe by: Judy Soyez                                                                        Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients
6 chicken breast halves
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2/3 cup whipping cream, whipped to soft peaks
1/3 cup Miracle Whip®
1 cup chopped celery
1 teaspoon onion salt
1/4 teaspoon curry powder, or more, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Directions
Simmer chicken breasts in very well seasoned chicken broth for about 45 minutes.  Drain, cool, and chop the chicken into bite size pieces (discard skin & bones).  Mix chicken in large bowl with celery, onion salt, curry powder and parsley.  In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, Miracle Whip and whipped cream.  Check dressing for seasonings and add more as necessary.  Stir into chicken and chill for several hours.

Optional ingredients:  dried cranberries or sweet whole green grapes (1 cup) and blanched whole almonds or walnuts (1/2 cup).

Notes
I usually just use a small rotisserie chicken from the grocery store.
