Why We Love This Recipe
I’m a bit of a chicken salad snob; it’s one of my favorite things to order for lunch, but it has to be creamy, crunchy, and overloaded with too many ingredients. That’s why I have perfected making my own chicken salad. Recipes
Avocado lovers will go crazy over this recipe that is full of tender creamy chunks of perfectly ripe avocado.
This is the ultimate in easy, quick recipes and it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

How to Serve Chicken Salad
- Our favorite way to serve this chicken salad is on top of a toasted whole wheat waffle with a tomato slice. It’s a stunning presentation that will bring lots of oohh’s and aahh’s.

Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips
- I buy 2 rotisserie chickens at a time. I bring them home, remove all of the meat and place it in 2-3 cup serving sizes in zip-top bags. I use what I want immediately and freeze the other bags. That way I have rotisserie chicken ready to go whenever I need it.
- For this recipe, use avocados that are slightly firm but not mushy.
- To ripen avocados, place them in a brown paper lunch sack and set the bag countertop or kitchen windowsill. They will ripen perfectly within 1-2 days.
- I find that the avocado gives this chicken salad extra creaminess. But if you want it creamier add an extra 1-2 tbsp of mayonnaise.
