Avocado Chicken Salad Salad

After my Colby Jack Cheese and Avocado Omelette this morning, I had half of a leftover avocado that I wanted to use before it went brown.  I also had some leftover roasted chicken breast that wasn’t getting any younger in my fridge. I was very pleased with the result! It was so flavorful that I didn’t even use any dressing on the salad—and trust me, I love my dressing. 











Ingredients
  • 6-8 oz fully cooked roasted chicken breast
  • ½ avocado
  • 1 tbsp.  Smart Balance Light Mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp. Hidden Valley Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix
  • 2 sticks of celery, chopped
  • Fresh spinach
  • Cucumber
  • Black pepper to taste


Instructions
  • Place fully cooked roasted chicken breast in the food processor. Pulse a few times until desired consistency (I kept mine a little chunky). Canned chicken would also work fine.
  • Stir in the mayonnaise, and mash in the avocado. Mix in the Hidden Valley Buttermilk Ranch Dressing Mix.
  • Serve over a bed of spinach and cucumbers.  Sprinkle with fresh black pepper.
