Whole30 Chicken Salad Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1.5 lb of chicken breast, cooked and shredded (or chopped – however you like it)
- 2 cups of red, seedless grapes, halved
- 1/4 cup red onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup of homemade mayo (see our Whole30 mayo recipe here)
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, roasted
- 1 avocado, diced
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, grapes, red onion, walnuts, and avocado.
In a separate bowl, combine your homemade mayo with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Add the mayo mix to your large bowl and mix everything together. Ta-da, you’ve got your chicken salad!
Bonus Ideas:
You might also try adding dill and celery depending on how you feel about those flavors. I’m not a huge fan of celery in my chicken salad, but some love it! If you’re not big into mayo, you might try just adding a little extra avocado – some find that mushy avocado can be enough to hold the ingredients together, but I prefer adding some mayo myself.
