 Summer
is in full swing and it's time for those backyard barbecues,
poolside parties or picnics in the park! Whatever the occasion,
cool summer salads are a refreshing way to beat the heat.
This recipes combines melons -- which are in abundance and
so tasty this time of year -- and fresh tarragon that you
gardeners out there probably have growing in your garden or
in a pot on your deck. If not, pick some up at the store.
Tarragon adds a unique flavor to this delicious salad.

chicken breast, cut up*
1 cup chopped celery
