Chicken Salad

This is very good. It becomes "Excellent" in my opinion, if you take out the water chestnuts, and sautee the chicken in butter and the curry. Then add the almonds and sautee. Put that in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. This is very tasty even if you can only add the grapes or the pineapple, but really good with both. People who don't like curry, and those who don't like fruit in their meat, LOVE this. It is very refreshing and a great treat for visitors who just had to travel on plane (or for any other dehydrated guests.) :)
