Instructions

  1. Add the mayo, mustard, lemon juice, parsley, and some salt & pepper to a medium bowl. Stir until smooth.
  2. Add in the chicken, celery, apple, and red onion. Stir together until combined. Give it a taste and adjust ingredients as needed (e.g. add more salt & pepper).
  3. Serve in sandwiches/wraps, lettuce wraps, inside an avocado... etc.

Notes

  • I used half a Gala apple, but any variety that's not too sweet will work (try Granny Smith or Honeycrisp). Any apple will work, though, if you're ok with more sweetness.
  • See blog post for suggestions on substitutions or additions to this recipe. It's a very forgiving recipe, so you can definitely tweak it to your liking.
  • This recipe makes enough for 4 sandwiches.
  • It will keep for 3-5 days in the fridge.
  • You can also find this recipe in chapter 7 of the Salt & Lavender: Everyday Essentials cookbook.
