Is it just me or does it seem really difficult to find a chicken salad that everyone loves at the store? I personally love a chicken salad with some nuts & fruit, Seth not so much. When I lived in Ohio I had 2 grocery stores that had chicken salad that I loved, they were both more of a savory chicken salad, still delicious though.

When I moved to North Carolina, it took me awhile & many failed attempts at buying & trying different ones. I did find a fruit & nut chicken salad at Publix that I really liked.

Then I thought, why don’t I try making my own, one that has all the things I love about chicken salad & here it is!

Feel free to make it healthier, by adding greek yogurt and low fat mayo or any substitutes that fit your needs better. By all means this is still healthier than anything you can buy at the store & it’s pretty delicious as well.

Another fun fact is that I used to hate mayo, like despise it and the only thing I would eat is Miracle Whip. Moving to NC and having a husband who likes mayo caused me to change my mind we started using Duke’s and I’ve never looked back. If you haven’t tried it yet, now is your chance.

Feel free to substitute low fat mayo or whatever mayo you prefer. We have this in the fridge so it’s what I’m using. I also love to serve it on a whole grain- seeded bread.
