Back in the 70's/80's, I loved going to House of Grace where Curtis Grace made the best food in a beautiful old house that was refurbished as a tea room. He still has a House of Grace there, only now it's in a former Pizza Hut. The last time I had this wonderful salad from him was on a visit with Nan. Ellen picked up take out for us and we had a wonderful time visiting in their kitchen eating Curtis Grace's food one more time.
Nan threw Debbie a baby shower at House of Grace one time. There were probably 8 of us and the meal was served in 5 courses. We were fancy in those days! Another one of his specialties was strawberry shortcake. It was an old-fashioned shortcake even then--more like a cracker than a cake.
Anyway, I found this recipe for his California Chicken Salad which was my favorite of his specialties. As I was looking at it, I realized that it's pretty much low carb! I just left off the grapes to make it keto. And I used chopped pecans because I didn't have slivered almonds. It's as good as I remember.
Look at that typing! I am thankful we don't have to use an old fashioned typewriter to copy recipes anymore :)
