Perfect for luncheons and buffet spreads, this creamy chicken salad balances tender diced meat with crisp celery, sweet pineapple, juicy grapes, and toasted pecans. A dressing lightened with whipped cream makes it feel airy rather than heavy. Pile it onto lettuce leaves for a refreshing dish that disappears fast at any gathering.
