Puff pastry topped with fresh greens and a drizzle of blueberry lemon dressing make this Chicken Waldorf Salad Tart a delicious appetizer or light lunch option for all your holiday parties.
How are your holiday parties going? If your party schedule is anything like mine, you might be feeling overwhelmed right about now. With all the cooking and shopping and cleaning, it seems days go by at lightning speed and somehow December ends up being one of the quickest months of the year!
I hope with today’s easy Chicken Waldorf Salad Tart recipe, I’ll be able to help relieve some of the holiday stresses you’re experiencing. The salad is simple. I tossed together an arugula spring mix with spinach leaves, added tasty and colorful mix-ins like walnuts and dried cranberries, and added cubes of chicken from a store-bought rotisserie chicken.
To turn the Chicken Waldorf Salad Tart into an elegant appetizer, I served it over a slab of flaky puff pastry. For the dressing, a drizzle of blueberry lemon dressing. I made the dressing using Smucker’s Fruit & Honey Blueberry Lemon Fruit Spread. I love the fresh blueberry flavor, the tartness that the lemon flavor adds, and that it’s naturally sweetened with honey. Having all of those flavor profiles in one ingredient makes throwing together the blueberry lemon dressing a breeze!
This Chicken Waldorf Salad Tart is versatile too. You can adjust the serving sizes to accommodate your needs. Going to a holiday lunch party? Cut the slab into 4 to 6 even pieces. Need a quick appetizer before the holiday party guests arrive? Cut them into small, two-bite pieces. I’m warning you now, this Chicken Waldorf Salad Tart is really addicting. A little sweet, a little savory, and a dash of tartness in every bite. What’s not to love?
