Mix everything together until it’s well combined and creamy. Taste and adjust the seasoning if you need to. Once it’s all blended nicely, it’s ready to enjoy!
- Use cooked chicken that is warm or cold, depending on your preference.
- Add a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
- Chop ingredients uniformly for a better texture and easier eating.

Serve this salad over a bed of fresh greens or with whole-grain crackers for added crunch. It also pairs well with a slice of crusty bread or inside a wrap for a more filling option.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 1-2 days for the best taste and freshness. Avoid adding dressing until just before eating to keep the salad crisp.
