ISO Junior's Chicken Salad recipe
I had it briefly and can't remember where I found it. It's made with mayo and sour cream and dillweed. The other day I was so desperate I made Ina's chicken salad (the one with the walnuts and grapes which is wonderful in itself!) and left out the nuts and fruit, sprinkled it with dillweed and a little lemon juice and it was "sorta" like Junior's. But I'd love to have the original. It is soooo good on toasted rye. Thanks!

Well, as Emily Litella used to say, "never mind" because I just found the recipe at Recipezaar. The dressing calls for (Hellman's :) mayo, sour cream, Dijon mustard, salt, white pepper and garlic powder.
