Curried Chicken Rice Salad, About 30 years ago, I got this recipe from a pamphlet at a Visitor’s Center just over the Mississippi River from Mississippi into Arkansas It has been a summer mainstay ever since The time required assumes you already have cooled cooked rice Also, I go heavy on the pineapple and use a whole can rather than 1 cup ”, A wonderful easy to make salad I made it before heading off to work in the morning so that the flavours could develop during the day Was so nice to come home to a main that just had to be served and I also made a Greek Salad to go with it A delightful summer salad that really hits the spot
