The other night I made cranberry chicken salad sandwiches and Dijon potato salad with green onions for dinner. I pretty much LOVE anything sort of meal I can make ahead of time. I don’t know about you, but the last thing I want to do is try and figure out what to make for dinner at the last minute. Because when that happens, we usually end up eating cereal for dinner. Ha!
If you have never tried chicken salad with cranberries before, it delicious. Trust me.
