Chicken Salad with Rotisserie Chicken
I love an easy no-bake recipe for the summertime, and chicken salads are one of my go-tos for a quick lunch. You can make a big batch and enjoy it all week long. Sometimes I'll meal prep chicken at the start of the week, and other times I'll grab a gluten free rotisserie chicken to keep things even simpler. If you use a rotisserie chicken, be sure to remove the meat while it's still warm—it’s much easier that way. Taking the meat off the bones when it's cold can be a hassle! This is one of my favorite chicken salad recipes, perfect when I want something a little more fun. I enjoy using a rotisserie chicken because sometimes I find myself snacking on it fresh and warm from the store, searching for a way to use up the rest after it's cold. It's already prepared and full of flavor, so it's a wonderful base for any meal. You can also substitute the rotisserie with cooked chicken breasts or even dark meat. If you're allergic to nuts or avoiding added sugar, feel free to omit the nuts or skip the craisins. With so many options, you can make it your own every time.
