Healthy Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad

Healthy Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad

This simple chicken salad is healthy and fresh, a unique combination of a slightly sweet dressing, tart dried cranberries, and pungent feta cheese. Add walnuts for a bit of texture interest, and put everything over shredded chicken breast meat… it’s perfect on its own, or in a pita, lettuce wrap, on crackers, in an endive leaf… the possibilities are endless.

Yummy chicken salad

For this recipe, you will need:

• 3 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
• 1/4 to 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• A splash of orange Juice
• 1/3 cup craisins (dried cranberries)
• 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
• Feta cheese (crumbled) to taste

Yummy chicken salad
Whisk the mayo and OJ together in a small bowl, then dump everything together in a large bowl and stir.

Add a little salt if you’d like. Refrigerate until cool. Serve over lettuce or make a sandwich/wrap/pita.

    I feel my mouth starting to water.
    I'm glad I found your website!
    I love to cook too. :)
  • I must try this! I'm not a fan of chicken salad that's too mayo-y, or has celery or onions in it, which it often does. This looks like it would be just about right for me!
  • JoyfulAbode
    I'm not a huge fan of the celery-y onion-y stuff either (though I do like a little celery in it occasionally, just not too overpowering. I hope you like this one! Let me know how it goes if you try it.
  • That looks so yummy!
