Avocado Chicken Salad

 

Avocado Chicken Salad
(Gluten free)

This is a chicken salad I came up with because I love avocados with anything! But also I fell in love with the stuffed avocado chicken salad I ate in Lima, Peru. I visited there 2 summers when my parents lived there years ago. The Peruvian version was absolutely delicious and I have not been able to find a good recipe for it. So I've made my own version and it's addicting!

Avocado Chicken Salad

* Cooked chicken, chopped 

* (I use rotisserie chicken to make it more convenient, plus it's delicious!)

* Avocado cut in small squares

* Celery, cut into small pieces

* Toasted slivered almonds (or pecans)

* Dried cranberries, chino them if they're too big

* Green onions, sliced

* Mayonnaise I use GF Duke's or Hellmans)

* Salt, if needed

Note: you can add any fruit like pineapple, grapes, mango or oranges. The reason I don't add fruit to this recipe (other than the cranberries) is because I have a different chicken salad I call Fruited Chicken Salad, that is also delicious but very different from this recipe. It has a secret ingredient that makes it special.

Mix everything together and serve inside a halved avocado, with crackers or on bread. I eat it with my favorite gluten free Sesame Rice Crackers (Savory Thin) from Trader Joe's.
