Avocado Chicken Salad is easy to make and you will never want to make your chicken salad without avocado again!  Perfect on a sandwich, croissant or served with tortilla chips!


HOW DO YOU MAKE AVOCADO CHICKEN SALAD?
  • Start by using 2 cups of cooked and diced chicken.  Rotisserie Chicken or even canned chicken works great.
  • Add in diced avocado, mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt and pepper.  Mix together.
  • Use it to make a sandwich, or serve with tortilla chips.
WHAT CAN I SUBSTITUTE MAYONNAISE WITH?
  • Greek Yogurt
  • Hummus
  • Pesto
  • Nut Butter
TIPS FOR PICKING OUT THE PERFECT AVOCADOS:
  • Squeeze the avocado.  Hold it in the palm of your hand and gently squeeze.  A ripe avocado should yield to firm, gentle pressure, but shouldn't feel overly soft or mushy.
  • You can also check under the stem.  Peel back the small stem or cap at the top of the avocado.  If it comes away easily, and you find green underneath, it is ripe and ready to go.
