Chicken Artichoke Salad

I cut this recipe in 1/2.  We had this for a light lunch with crackers.  Homemade bread would be even better. I had a green bell pepper, but a red would have added a pop of color that would be really nice.  You could also add some toasted pecans or almonds. This would be a great way to use left-over turkey.  Hope I have some.  My mom, Barbara Brown, gave me this recipe.
