Chicken Apple Salad

{source}

I have been hunting down this recipe for literally over 2 years now and finally got a copy of it from my mother-in-law the other day!!  So happy!!!! I've already made it for a baby shower and it was a major hit!  So refreshing for summer and doubles great for entertaining.

{What you need}

2 pounds cooked chicken tenders, cubed

2 tart apples, cored and cubed

8 oz. of Gouda cheese

8 oz. package bow tie pasta, cooked and cooled

1/2 cup celery, diced

1 cup pineapple tidbits

1 cup seedless grapes, halved

2/3 cup sliced almonds (I left these out)

{dressing}

1 cup mayo

1/4 cup sour cream

3 tbsp. lime juice

3 tbsp. honey

1 tbsp. poppy seeds

Combine all salad ingredients in a large bowl and toss.  Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a blender and mix well.  Chill salad and dressing separately.  Dress salad right before serving for best results.
