This Fruit and Nut Chicken Salad is quickly becoming one of my favorite summer meals. The chicken is tender, the fruit is perfectly sweet and the pecans add just the right amount of crunch. It is definitely a must try!
If making this Whole30 compliant, read your labels to ensure your mayo and cranberries are compliant. When on Whole30, I like to serve this over a bed a of fresh spinach. If not on Whole30, I like to eat this delicious chicken salad with a piece of gluten-free bread.
One thing I want to note is that I am not a very big fan of mayo so I add as little as possible. Please make it your own and add as much or as little as you’d like.
