Chicken Salad

So, here’s how it went down: I slaved over a hot oven for hours roasting a juicy chicken, only to notice that my family wasn’t beating a path to the kitchen to get to it. Well, alright then!!! Well, I learned that day if life hands you a chicken, then make chicken salad☺

Here’s my simple recipe:

Ingredients:

• 1 whole roasted chicken, diced (or 4 cups diced chicken)
• 1 medium bell pepper, diced
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 small tomato, diced
• 2 medium boiled eggs, diced (optional)
• 2-3 tbsp. mayonnaise
• Salt & pepper, to taste
• Lemon juice, to taste

Instructions:

1. Combine chicken and diced veggies in a large mixing bowl, add diced eggs (optional).
2. Mix in the mayo, add the salt, pepper and lemon juice until desired taste is achieved.
3. Serve salad on a bed of lettuce, refrigerate unused portion.

Note: As an even healthier alternative, plain, low fat yogurt may substitute for the mayo.
