Step 1:

How do you make a salad with chicken, pineapple, walnuts, and cheese? Gather everything you need. I use boiled chicken breast — you can swap in smoked, but the flavor won't be as mellow as it is with boiled meat. Use pineapple chunks (about three rings' worth), canned corn, and hard cheese. Pre-toasted walnuts are best. Get out a serving bowl.
Step 2:

Carefully open the can of corn and drain off the liquid. Put the corn into the bowl.
Step 3:

Cut the cooled chicken into small cubes and add it to the corn. You can use any chicken you have on hand, but boiled breast makes for a mellower salad.
Step 4:

Carefully open the can of pineapple. Take out what you need and cut it into small cubes. Save the leftover juice for other recipes, like cocktails or popsicles. Add the chopped pineapple to the bowl.
Step 5:

Take the cheese out of its package, trim off the rind, and grate it on the coarse side of the grater. Any cheese you like or have on hand will do. Add the grated cheese to the salad.
Step 6:

Mix everything in the bowl, then add salt to taste and the mayonnaise. You can serve the salad in one big bowl or divide it into portions.
Step 7:

Toasted walnuts are best. If yours are raw, toast them a few minutes in a dry skillet first (toasted nuts are easier to digest). Chop the walnuts small with a sharp knife.
Step 8:

Scatter the chopped walnuts over the top. Your chicken, pineapple, walnut, and cheese salad is ready. Enjoy!
