Recipe # 10 Chicken Salad

This is mom's recipe and it is for the masses. I'm guessing a church recipe. I do remember her making this for home in smaller quantities. I've done the math to cut it down for 2 boneless chicken breasts. I won't know until morning if the adjustments were correct.

Chicken Salad - 150 sandwiches / 100 salads

10 lbs. chicken breast } cooked and diced
18 lbs. chicken hen } cooked and diced
1 cup lemon juice
1 pt. olive oil
Salt & pepper
1 sm. grated onion

Mix the night before.

Add:
5 bunches (stalks) diced celery
2 qts. (about) mayonnaise
More salt if needed
Spread bread (1 long newish loaf = 14 sandwiches) with 2 qts. More mayonnaise (about).
