Delicious & Simple Spring Lunch~

When it comes to food there is a time to be contrived and a time to get back to the basics.. and that's what I did today with my simple chicken salad

My Ingredients

1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, poached

1-2tbsp finely chopped red onion

1-2 tbsp finely chopped celery
chopped dill

6 or 7 grape tomatoes halved or quartered

2 tsp lemon juice

light mayo

salt and pepper to taste
(((Makes 2 normal size sandwiches)))

Mix  the red onion, celery, chopped dill, and chicken together,

then stir in the mayo to your taste but be aware that when you add the teeny tomatoes it will add some moisture, (I like my chicken salad with less mayo).

Now add the lemon juice, stirring nicely.

Last, add the tomatoes incorporating them gently. 

Salt and pepper to taste. 

I layered my chicken salad on de-crusted white bread and garnished it with pepperocinis and added a pretty and tasty fruit mix along with a large refreshing sparkling lemonade!

tips

I poached my chicken breast with garlic seasoning. I placed it in the refridge to chill over night as it makes the chicken firm up a bit , easier to chop and shred with a sharp knife..or 2. 

This is also a pretty healthy chicken salad. There is only the light mayo in it and if you don't drown your salad in it, it should remain healthy. I know I shouldn't use white bread.. but tough.. I love it.. hahahahaa

 I hope you take a moment to play around with this recipe.. it is very basic and simple. but you can easily contrive it all up with grapes, nuts, red pepper strips.. ect...ect...ect...

But I love it this way.. Simple Chicken Salad~
