Do you know a good recipe for chicken salad?

I went to a baby shower today and they had the BEST chicken salad I have ever had! It was kinda dry, had small pieces of apple in it, and was served on lettuce leaves. There were no onions or celery that I could see or taste. Any recipe ideas like this?Do you know a good recipe for chicken salad?
Mix together:





One (13 oz.) can chunk chicken breast in water, drained well.


About one-half apple, diced


Several seedless, green grapes, quartered


Some chopped cashews


A bit of chopped onion


Mayo


Season w/Lawry's seasoning salt





It's best to make this well ahead of time


(even the night before), so the flavors meld.


Also, if you're using cooked chicken (rather than canned),


you may need to adjust the seasoning.
