Whole30 Chicken Salad

I hesitate calling this a recipe, because I don’t have exact measurements for the ingredients, but it is one of my family’s go-to recipes for meal prep and parties, so I feel compelled to share. There’s nothing fancy about it, but it is perfect for breakfast, cold lunches at the office or on-the-go, and for when you want something to serve at a gathering that can be prepped ahead of time. Be sure to check out my easy roasted chicken recipe, too, because the leftovers make for a delicious chicken salad. You can use canned or rotisserie chicken from the grocery store, too, but I personally prefer my roasted chicken. Be sure to grab my 1-minute mayo recipe, or you can substitute your favorite mayo from the store (Just be sure to read labels carefully if you are doing the Whole30).
