Ingredients
- 2 cups cubed, cooked chicken breasts

- 1 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise

- 2 teaspoons finely minced onion
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- ½ cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 cup crushed potato chips (plain or ruffled)
Directions
- PREHEAT oven to 450 degrees. Coat 6 heatproof ramekins or a 1 ½ quart baking dish with nonstick spray.
- COMBINE chicken, celery, bread, mayonnaise, almonds, lemon juice, onion, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Combine cheese and potato chips in a small bowl.
