Chicken Salad Glow-up: 4 Fresh Takes
Mix up a batch of your favorite chicken salad or swing by our Deli to grab some premade chicken salad that’s ready to go.
1. Stuffed Avocado Boats
Halve a ripe avocado lengthwise and remove the pit. Gently scoop out a bit of flesh to make a deeper well in each half, then pile chicken salad into each well. Garnish with fresh herbs and a sprinkle of paprika. It’s a picture-perfect presentation in just 2 minutes.
2. Crispy Lettuce Wraps
Select large, sturdy lettuce leaves (romaine or butter lettuce work great). Wash the leaves and pat completely dry. Spoon chicken salad onto the centers of the leaves, fold each similar to a taco and enjoy the garden-fresh vibes.
3. Inside-out Everything Bagel
Slice an everything bagel, scoop out some of the bready center, then toast until golden. Mix the bagel crumbs into your chicken salad and layer it on the bagel halves. Top each half with everything bagel seasoning and arugula.
4. Sweet and Savory Apple Rounds
Slice a firm apple into ½-inch-thick rounds and use a small cookie cutter or spoon to remove the core. Pat the apple slices dry and top each with a generous scoop of chicken salad. Finish with fresh cracked pepper.
