I love this stuff. It is so easy to make and people love it! The very first time I made this recipe I brought it over to a friends house for a picnic. Before the day was over I had 5 people ask me for the recipe. The avocado is so creamy that you don’t even miss the mayo in traditional chicken salad. And bonus…unlike mayo you don’t have to worry about it spoiling on a hot day! It is a great way to use up any leftover chicken and perfect to have on hand for a quick and nutritious lunch.
