The week just started and it’s already been so crazy. I tried to meal prep early on in the week so it makes lunch time quick and easy. Instead of buying a bunch of ready-made items from the deli, I make this chicken salad and keep it in the fridge to make quick sandwiches, or as a topping to my salads. The good part about this recipe is you can use a ready-made rotisserie chicken, boiled chicken, or roasted chicken.
