Bacon. Chicken. Salad.
Yall, this was 100% an OOOOOPS recipe yesterday but it was so delicious I just HAD TO share it with you!!
But be warned… its STUPID EASY!
(Not that you mind right… LOL!)
SO I went to make a traditional chicken salad base with the rotisserie I got at Sams Club!
I was so excited (and starving) and plopped that Chosen Foods mayo in like a BOSS!
I reached in the fridge for the relish and Dijon mustard and discovered I WAS TOTALLY OUUUUUTTTTT.
LIKE HOW DO YOU EVEN HAVE CHICKEN SALAD WITHOUT MUSTARD?
I almost panicked… Because to me, chicken and JUST mayo did NOT sound all that appealing.
So I searched and searched my fridge and cabinets and came up with a delicious turn around… enter the scene… BACON.
ALWAYS BACON. And the famous “Everything Bagel Seasoning”. WINNING.
I mixed it all up and was craving a little CRUNCH factor that I miss with finely diced apples or cranberries in a traditional chicken salad. Soooooooo I added some slivered almonds to the top and grabed my trusty WHISP parmesean cheese crisps and the entire meal took me less than 5 minutes to prep. I honestly think I inhaled it in the same amount of time and had TONS of leftovers… which my hubby had for dinner.
DOUBLE WINNING.
If you dont have the EBTB seasoning, I would just use lots of garlic, salt, poppy and seasame seeds to your liking! But the one linked above from Amazon has stellar reviews!
It really was THAT EASY yall! And even the 15 month old scarfed some down for a snack this morning. TRIPLE WIN.
