Chicken salad is always a great choice for me. Although when taking to schools, make sure you keep it either refrigerated or packed with a cold pack.
The flavor profile includes chow chow which is a pickled cabbage based sweet relish. You can buy that at the store, or use my recipe here: Chow Chow.
I also use Marzetti’s Southern Style dressing in this. I’ll have an upcoming post for that where you can make it yourself. I just haven’t had a chance to get that posted. I would have done it before, but have been waiting for it to get back on the shelves. It was out of stock for a long time. And I do like to have samples of originals when I make copycat recipes.
In the meantime you can either buy it or use my DIY recipe for regular Marzetti Dressing. The regular and Southern are somewhat similar with the Southern style being a bit sweeter. Add a pinch of sugar if you like. I’ll try to get the Southern Style recipe up soon.
