Sonoma Salad

I had this years ago at my best friends baby shower. I went to costco today on a mission to find it to pack for game night at the field. Well, I had no luck finding it.  So,  I scoured the Internet trying to find a similar  recipe and couldn't settle on one. I took a little from each and came up with this!

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts boiled and chopped
1 cup grapes, chopped
1 cup craisins (dried cranberries )
3-4 stalks of celery, chopped
3/4 cup chopped pecans

1 cup mayo
5 teaspoons honey
4 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Mix the top set of ingredients in a bowl (note: after I chopped my chicken into small pieces I squished them up a bit to make them less uniform in shape and more suitable for chicken salad). In a small bowl,  mix the ingredients for the dressing. Pour this over the chicken mixture and mix well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.  Serve on a croissant or in a lettuce wrap!
