For my lunch for two, I used my colorful rooster, my covered hen dish and a pretty plant.
My Kohl's black and white check tablecloth was used along with the gingham check napkins that I made.
The rooster luncheon plate came from Ross, along with the matching mug. Red salad plate is from Target and the red flatware is from Homegoods.
These are perfect for a big mug of coffee or tea!
4 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 1/2 cups chopped celery
4 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
1 (2-ounce) jar diced pimento, drained (I omitted)
1 T. finely chopped onion
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 T. lemon juice
3/4 t. salt
1/2 t. freshly ground pepper (my addition)
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (I used a Mexican blend)
2/3 cup sliced almonds, toasted
Combine first 9 ingredients in a bowl; mix well. Spoon into a lightly greased 12 x 8 x 2-inch baking dish; cover and bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
Sprinkle with cheese; top with almonds. Bake, uncovered, 3 additional minutes or until cheese melts.
Makes 6-8 servings.

Thank you for visiting my kitchen! xo
This looks delicious. I will copy both when I can get upstairs to the computer with rpinter!
ReplyDeleteThe salad sounds great and I love the checked tablecloth Kitty-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteWow Kitty, your tablecloth matches your blog....it was meant to be.
ReplyDeleteYour salad looks wonderful. I have those very same rooster plates.
The setting is darling. Your friend Patsy left me a comment and wanted
to know about blog designs, so I emailed her. I just finished with Nanns.
XO Linda
Your casserole looks really yummy but I'm really drooling over all your darling black & white checks!!! It goes with your new blog look beautifully. Linda did a great job!
ReplyDeleteYou mentioned that you'd like to see a closer view of the Valentines Day runner I made. I think there are better photos of it here: /2012/01/my-sisters-visit-for-lunch.html
Love your rooster dishes against the checked tablecloth!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! You changed up your page!!! I didn't think I was in the right place at first! I like the black, red & white, and I REALLY like the houndstooth background! I wish I could get Ramon to eat casseroles. He can be such a picky thing sometimes. It would sure make my life a lot easier! That's OK....when I have my surgery in a couple of months he'll have to take over kitchen duty (to a certain extent). He'll find out it's not all fun & games in there!!! I have a feeling I should put Pizza Hut on speed dial before I go under! :-) Ross for the dishes, huh? I STILL haven't been to the new ones that recently opened here around the Kansas City area! I don't know what I'm waiting for. I think it's because I've been on a buying hiatus and I'm afraid I'll go in there and find a billion things I want and fall off the wagon. Or I'm lazy. Yeah...probably that 2nd one! :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful table setting, Kitty. The chicken casserole looks yummy!...Christine
ReplyDeleteLove all your roosters! Your casserole looks great too, Kitty.
ReplyDeleteLove all of the black and white check and who does not love rooster decorations? I will try the casserole, but will substitute something for the mayo. I have never learned to eat it! I do love almonds, though!
ReplyDeleteRoosters...my mother loved them. I didn't keep all of her collection, just the ones that were my favorites. That includes a set of dishes that one of these days I should feature on a table.
ReplyDeleteWonderful chicken goodies for a delicious sounding chicken casserole. I look forward to giving it a try. Thanks so much. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteThis sounds delicious and easy! I will definitely make this one. I wonder what the roosters think of the chicken salad! I love those dishes and the black and white linens. Linda
ReplyDeleteKitty, it just all looks so wonderful. Love your dishes. And the big rooster is something to crow about for sure. I do love recipe and can see this on my table this weekend! xo marlis
ReplyDeleteKitty, it looks delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI love your beautiful rooster dishes, Kitty. The chicken casserole sounds delish. My family eats chicken more than other proteins, so I'm always on the lookout for new recipes. Thanks for sharing this one!
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty, I love your black and white checked tablecloth. It looks nice
ReplyDeletewith your new blog design too! I have rooster plates but forget to use them.
The salad looks wonderful, and thanks for the recipe.

ReplyDeleteYour rooster dishes are so cute,Kitty.
ReplyDeleteThe chicken salad sounds good.
hi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteI have never shopped at Ross but I am going to check it out soon, those rooster dishes are darling! Love the black and white checks too, perfect! What a great tablescape to go with your menu, yum!

I can't believe how his tail feathers match your wonderful plates. It is so cute on the checked back drop and that casserole sounds like the perfect thing for a cold and snowy day here. I got a rotisserie chicken yesterday and for the two of us it will last for about 3 meals. This would be perfect with it.
ReplyDeleteThis would spoil my hubby. A nice hot meal when he comes home from work.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, this is my first visit here and I love the looks of your blog and the recipes. This casserole is a winner and I will be trying it soon. Thanks for the recipe!
ReplyDeleteWow, what's not to like in your chicken casserole recipe! Sounds wonderful! Very cute table--love the red, black and white!
ReplyDeleteHi Kitty,
ReplyDeleteYour recipe is awesome and we will just love this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing it with Full Plate Thursday.
Have a great weekend and come back soon!
