I honestly think I could eat chicken salad every day and never get sick of it. Whether you’re eating chicken salad in a sandwich, a wrap, a big lettuce leaf, or simply on its own, chicken salad is a classic recipe that also happens to be delicious and full of protein. I’ve tried numerous chicken salad recipes in my life, but this one might be at the top of my list.

Southern Living created this recipe, and does anyone do classic food recipes better than them? I think not. If you have some leftover chicken, you can use it to make this recipe. Or cook up a few fresh chicken breasts – whatever you have on hand.
