Easy and Delicious Chicken Salad Croissant
I interrupt all things Fall to bring you a fantastic lunch! This is most definitely my favorite sandwich to make for lunch. I LOVE a flakey buttery croissant and this chicken salad is amazing. It’s packed full of protein and even has fruit and veggies inside! Hello, awesome! I love to make it after my morning workout when I want a filling meal but I don’t want something to heavy. This is it! I usually serve it with a fruit or veggie on the side and a glass of ice water! Today was sparkling apple cider (I’ll share the recipe soon! SOOO good!)
Ingredients:
Croissants – I use the store bought ones found in the bakery of our grocery store
1 can of shredded chicken (fresh is great too but canned is easier and faster!)
2-3 Tablespoons of Mayo depending on your taste – I used organic that doesn’t contain sugar.
1/4 cup of chopped celery
1/4 cup of grapes, sliced. (I prefer red but I had green on hand.)
1 teaspoon of dry ranch seasoning
small handful of cashews, chopped (optional)
Directions:
Using a serrated knife, slice croissant open, leaving one side in tact so the chicken salad doesn’t fall out when you eat it. Set aside. Combine all remaining ingredients in a small bowl then spoon into croissant. Easy, right? This is such a great quick and easy lunch that is pretty healthy even! These are also great for parties on mini croissants! Yum!!
Enjoy!
