Curried Chicken Salad

This chicken salad is a nice alternative to the traditional version. The addition of curry powder gives the salad its vibrant yellow color. In addition, this salad takes on a sweet element from the chopped apples and dried cranberries with other aromatic ingredients you likely have on hand. If you have fresh parsley, add a handful to replace dried for better flavor.
