Chicken Avacado Salad

 Chicken Avocado Salad

Found on the Gracious Pantry
(Makes: 2 servings OR 4 servings if topping the halves of 2 avocados)

This was really simple and yummy.  I would add it on a bed of kale finely chopped.

Salad Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup shredded chicken (canned or home-cooked)
  • 1/4 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup minced, raw, red onions
  • 2 avocados – 4 halves (optional I cubed mine on top as I served it)
  • Dressing to taste

Dressing Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. avocado oil (I didn't have so I used hemp oil and could probably do 1/2 tbsp.)
  • 1 tsp. yellow mustard, no sugar added
  • 1 tsp. dried tarragon
  • 1/8 tsp. garlic powder
  • Pinch salt (to taste)

Directions:

  1. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the salad ingredients until well mixed.
  3. Pour the dressing over your salad and serve as desired.

(I ate mine on a bed of Kale that was finely chopped.  I just cubed up the avocado and ate it on top.)
