Avocado and Cilantro-Lime Chicken Salad!

For the longest time Chicken Salad grossed me out.  I think when I was little I had a bad experience...and I absolutely hate mayo. I saw this recipe on Pinterest and decided to add my own twist to it..without using mayo!

Chicken Salad on Toasted Wheat

INGREDIENTS:

- 2 cans of chicken
-1 avocado
- cilantro
-red onion
-lime juice
-salt & pepper

DIRECTIONS:

First I drained the cans of chicken and put them in a bowl.  Then I scooped the avocado into the same bowl with the chicken.  I threw in some cilantro and some diced red onion and mashed them all together. Add salt and pepper and lime juice to your liking.  For a little kick I added a squirt of Dijon mustard. Mix thoroughly and let it sit in the fridge for about a 1/2 hour before serving.

All ingredients mixed together!
