Apple, peeled, cored and finely chopped 1
Finely chopped celery ¼ cup
Finely chopped red onion ¼ cup
Finely chopped cilantro or parsley 2 tbsp.
Lime Juice 2 tsp
Or Lemon juice 1 tbsp.
Salt ½ tsp
Freshly ground black pepper Pinch
Sandwich breads or salad green as per required
Olive oil as per required
METHOD:
Put chicken, avocado, apple, celery, and red onion in a medium bowl. Gently mash the avocado with a fork and stir it around so that everything gets well mixed. Add the cilantro or parsley, lime juice or lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Add more lime juice or salt to taste. If the mixture seems a little dry, you can stir in a teaspoon or two of olive oil.
To store, put the prepared salad in a bowl and cover completely with plastic wrap so that no part of the chicken salad is exposed to air. Put this salad in the fridge for a longer shelf life. This can be eaten in various ways. Serve on sandwich bread or toasted bread, or you can add more salad green for that crunchy, healthy bite. Celebrate this Father’s Day with Health & Happiness.
