Apple and Avocado Chicken Salad

Recipe

This is a creamy and refreshing chicken salad made without mayo. It's good on toast, or simply on a fork. The tart Granny Smith apple kind of disappears into the background and adds just the right amount of sweetness, as well as a great texture and refreshing crunch.
