Sonoma Chicken Salad

*This is my favorite chicken salad!

Salad Ingredients:
3 1/2 c. cooked, shredded chicken (cooled) (I like to cook
mine in the crock pot, about 3-4 hours on high)
1 c. diced celery
2/3 c. slivered almonds (original recipe calls for pecans)
1/2 c. crasins
1 c. diced apples
2 Tbs. grated parmesan cheese (I have left this out and it is still delish)

Dressing:
2/3 c. mayonnaise
1/4 c. apple juice
3 Tbs. honey
2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
1/2 tsp. prepared yellow mustard
1 Tbs. poppy seeds
1/2 tsp. onion powder
salt and pepper to taste

 In a large bowl, toss together all the salad ingredients.  In a separate bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the dressing until well blended.  Pour dressing over chicken mixture and toss to coat evenly.  Serve with bread, pitas, or croissants.  Store in refrigerator.
