This Healthy Chicken Salad is a delicious and simple recipe to make. It’s perfect for when you want a quick, tasty meal with few ingredients.
Currently, my house is busy! We are officially on summer break, which means four kids running around my house and me trying to keep it clean. It also means that my nights are filled with baseball games and finally getting home at 8 pm. By this time, all I want to do is make a quick meal and send the kids to bed. This Healthy Chicken Salad recipe is perfect for busy weeknights when I want something delicious and simple to make.
One of my requirements for the recipes I share is that at least some of my children like the recipe. I gave this recipe to my older kids, and they loved it! My younger two didn’t want to try it, but they aren’t fans of avocados. So I would recommend this recipe for older kids who like avocados.
