Instructions

  • Start off by preparing your ingredients. Dice the red onion, cucumber, avocado, and celery. Remove fresh dill leaves from their stalks and chop finely. Prepare chicken if needed.

  • Then, stir in cooked and shredded chicken and dried cranberries. Mix well.

Notes

Store your chicken salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Store separate from your bread, pita, wrap, etc. that you choose to serve it on so it doesn't get soggy. 
You can cook your own (check out this BEST Grilled Chicken recipe) or you can buy pre-shredded chicken breasts, use rotisserie chicken, or even canned chicken will do. There is plenty of flavor in this recipe that the chicken does not have to be the star of the show.
