Avocado Chicken Salad
Ingredients
- 1 large (8 to 10 oz) avocado, mashed with a fork
- 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 3 Tbsp finely chopped green onions
- 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 3/4 tsp minced fresh garlic (or 1/4 tsp dried granulated)
- Salt and black pepper
- 2 cups (11 oz) shredded cooked chicken breast (I like to use rotisserie chicken)
- 2/3 cup grape tomatoes, sliced or 1/2 cup diced celery
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl stir together mashed avocado, lemon juice, green onions, parsley, cilantro, garlic and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add chicken and toss to evenly coat with mixture.
- Toss in tomatoes or celery.
- Serve as desired: plain, over bread or lettuce leaves, it’s also delicious with cooked bacon.
Notes
- Depending on the avocado you can get a lightly different result, if needed you can add a spoonful of plain yogurt, a splash of olive oil or even water to thin the chicken salad out if preferred.
- Nutrition estimate doesn’t include food used for serving such as bread slices.
