HOW TO SERVE CHICKEN SALAD
Serve chicken salad as a sandwich, on top of tomato slices, or over greens. You can also have it as an afternoon snack with crackers, or serve with cut up celery and bell peppers, or on a lettuce wrap for a low carb option.

TIPS FOR MAKING CHICKEN SALAD
Add grapes, raisins, apples, or craisins to add a sweet and savory flavor.
This recipe calls for almonds but you can use other types of nuts like pecans, walnuts, or cashews.
Replace the mayo with pureed avocado and sour cream for an avocado chicken salad.
Cut the calories in this recipe by using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
This recipe takes a total time of 5 minutes to throw together, but I like to refrigerate it for at least an hour to give the flavors a chance to come together.
If you don’t have time to cook the chicken yourself you can use a rotisserie chicken. Just remove the skin and chop into pieces.
You can use fresh chicken or canned chicken for this recipe.
Make BBQ chicken salad by adding 2-3 tablespoons of your favorite BBQ sauce in place of some of the mayonnaise.
Add spices to this recipe to add different flavors like garlic, paprika, curry powder, or even mustard. Try chipotle seasoning and lime juice instead of lemon juice. Or a dash of cayenne pepper with pickled jalapenos for a spicy version.

Cook the chicken breasts in the crockpot, then use an electric hand mixer to shred the chicken for a shredded chicken salad recipe!
