chicken salad

This is a little healthier than regular, store bought chicken, and it's quick to make.  I feel less guilty when I eat this than if I buy it at a restaurant.  Plus, it tastes so fresh, and crunchy...I love me crunchy tasting things.  I make a big batch and then have it for the week to put over top of lettuce.



Chicken Salad

  • 2 cups of cooked chicken breast, Chopped (I bought an already cooked bird at the grocery, to save time, and just cut the breast meat off the bones).
  • 1 Fuji apple, chopped into small pieces
  • 1 &1/2 cups of chopped celery
  • 1 avocado, chopped
  • 1 cup of grapes, halved
  • 1/2 cup of mayo (I used olive oil mayo)
  • the juice from two, thick lemon wedges
  • salt & pepper
  • 2 Tbsp. of dijon mustard
Mix all the ingredients together.  Eat right away or let it sit in the fridge for a while (I think it tastes best this way).  I eat it over top of spinach leaves and then sometimes I add cut tomatoes and chopped onion.  Or put it on toast with a slice of tomato and a leaf of lettuce. 

CHOMP! CHOMP!
