Apple Cranberry Chicken Salad platter with butter lettuce, cucumber slices, carrot sticks, half an avocado, olives and pita crackers for lunch. This chicken salad was made with leftover rotisserie chicken and savory, sweet and delicious. I used mayo but you can also sub Greek mayo or mix it up depending on your preference. Sometimes I like to add chopped walnuts but this time I left them out. Here’s how I made it:
