Salad Olivieh

Iranian Style Chicken Salad - This is my all time favorite chicken salad. However, is it fair to call it chichen salad, when it also includes potatoes, eggs, carrots...should I go on?
Be aware, this salad is like money, it disappears quickly. Great for parties, great for lunches or for when you need something to snack on.
