Chicken Salad (For you Stace)

Combine and refidgerat:
3 cups cooked shell macaroni (I don't usually put this in when I'm doing chicken salad sandwiches, but you can add pasta and then just serve it as a salad to eat alone)
3-4 cups cooked and diced chicken
1 big can pineapple tidbits (very well drained)
2 cans drained water chestnuts (optional, good if you like them)
2 cups red seedless grapes
2 cups diced celery

Then mix these for the dressing and refidgerate:
12 oz Kraft coleslaw dressing (I've used hidden valley brand, worked fine)
1 cup mayonaise
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Salt and Pepper to taste

Then add to the dressing:
2 cups diced apples (any kind)
2 cups cashews (whole can)

Mix it all together the night before or a few hours before if you don't want the cashews too crunchy. Be sure and get the apples in the dressing right after cutting them and the lemon juice will keep them from turning brown. Enjoy! Yummy
