Cranberry Almond Chicken Salad Recipe

 

Ingredients

  1. Shredded, cooked chicken breast
  2. Dried cranberries
  3. Mayonnaise or Greek yoghurt
  4. Sliced almonds
  5. Slice green onions
  6. Pepper and salt as desired

Instructions

  • Combine the chopped almonds, dried cranberries, and shredded chicken in a bowl.
  • Add Greek yoghurt or mayonnaise to make the mixture creamier and serve as a binder.
  • Add the thinly sliced green onions to give the dish a little onion flavour.
  • To taste, add salt and pepper to the dish.
  • Enjoy with salad, in a wrap, or on whole-grain toast.

Notes

Recipe Advice:

  • To regulate sweetness, use dried cranberries that haven’t been sweetened.
  • For more nuttiness, toast the sliced almonds before incorporating them into the salad.

Variations:

  • Diced Granny Smith apples can be used for a tangy contrast.
  • For a distinctive flavour profile, sprinkle on a little curry powder.
  • For more greens, add chopped fresh spinach or arugula.
