Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 ounces cooked chicken breast shredded or diced
  • 0.25 cup celery sliced
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 0.25 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon dried cranberries
  • 1 tablespoon red onion chopped
  • 2 medium sweet red apples sliced into rounds, then cored

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Prepare the Chicken Salad: In a medium bowl combine the chicken with celery, mayonnaise, chicken broth, cranberries and red onion, and stir until combined. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Slice the Apples: When ready to eat, slice the apples into 1/4 inch thick slices, then remove the seeds. It’s best to eat right away so they don’t turn brown, but if you are planning to eat later, you can toss the apple slices in a little lemon juice.
  3. Assemble: Spoon a generous amount of chicken salad onto each apple slice and enjoy!

Notes

A delicious and healthy lunch option that avoids bread.
