I have a confession. Â I don’t usually eat lunch at work. Â Sometimes it is because I didn’t have time, but others, it’s because I don’t like what I’ve packed. Â When I stumbled across this recipe on Pinterest, I knew I needed to give it a try. Â It is amazingly delicious and I will be making it on repeat this spring and summer. Â Bonus points, it’s insanely easy.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded into large pieces
- 2 medium avocados, diced
- 1 tablespoon and 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lime juice
- Salt, to taste
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
- 1/2 cup finely chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons mayo
Directions:
- Shred the chicken (I used a rotessierie chicken) until you have 2 cups.
- Dice the avocados into medium-sized chunks, mix with 1 tablespoon of lime juice, and season with salt (I did not use any salt).
- Thinly slice the green onion and finely chop the cilantro.
- Mix mayo and remaining lime juice to make the dressing.
- Put chicken into a mixing bowl, then add the sliced green onion and dressing. Â Toss until coated. Â The add the avocado and lime juice and gently mix together with the chicken, green onion, and dressing. Â Lastly, combine the cilantro and combine.
- Serve or chill. Â Recommendations for serving: pita bread, lettuce cups, or just eating as a salad. Â I made the night before work and ate the next day as a salad.
