It was lunch time and I really needed to use some leftover store bought roasted chicken before it spoiled. I need to grocery shop and did not have much in the fridge, so I used what I had to make this chicken salad and it was so good, I'll definitely make it again. Fresh spinach is what makes it different.

Ingredients

  • 1 - chicken breast pre-cooked, chopped coarsley (unless you want to cook your own first)
  • 1/2 - bell pepper, any color
  • 1/4 cup fresh spinach, minced finely (if possible in a small chopper)
  • 1/2 cup or less sweet or purple onion, minced
  • 1/4 cup jarred mayonnaise of your choice (or to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons jarred mustard of your choice (or to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon catsup (or to taste)
  • - garlic powder to taste

How To Make not your traditional chicken salad

  • Step 1
    Just mix all ingredients and serve.
  • Step 2
    You can use all the ingredients to fit the amounts to fit your individual taste buds. We like it rather medium dry, not swimming in mayo.
  • Step 3
    I was out of the usual celery and had some spinach and pretty much nothing else in the fridge so it is what I used. It can be served in a sandwich or on lettuce, stuffed in a tomato or with chips or crackers. Enjoy!
