Cherry Chicken Salad Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Cherry Chicken Salad Recipe). After dining at a cafe in Michigan about 10 years ago, I tried duplicating this scrumptious twist on Chicken Salad at home. The cherries can be ordered on-line these days, which makes it much easier for those of us living where cherries are not readily available. Regular milk can be substituted for buttermilk, if necessary.
