Easy Chicken and Grape Salad

This is a quick and easy salad to make and take to a potluck or any social gathering. it’s a refreshing combination of, sour cream, mustard, celery, dill pickles, and grapes mixed with chicken. Then add to this, toasted Pecans. I like to hit it with a few sprinkles of Cayenne pepper just to give it a little kick. But not too much.
