One of my favorite culinary tricks is to take food from one meal and turn it into something completely different. I've never been one of those people who can eat the same thing meal after meal (both my father and Scott can happily eat from the same batch of chili for an entire week). So refreshing my leftovers becomes a necessity if I don't want to waste food or let things go bad.

My brother was the cook in one of the restaurants I worked in several years ago, and he made a really great chicken salad that had grapes in it. I have to remember to get the recipe from him one of these days.

In the meantime, the Kitchen Monkey has a recipe I have to try, for Grilled Chicken Salad with Sage, Almonds, and Cranberries. There are many ways to make chicken salad (and I'm sure you'll tell us how you make yours in the comments below!), and this one looks like it's worth making today. There's still a couple of hours before lunch! Full recipe after the jump.
