Avocado Chicken Salad

I am a big fan of Chicken Salad. Wether it is served with crackers, a baguette or just eaten with a fork I'm in! Below is a great and easy recipe you could make for a fast lunch, dinner or app for a cocktail party. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups of Shredded Chicken ( I use a whole roasted chicken pre-cooked at my local market, herb seasoned, no skin)
2 avocados
Salt
Pepper
Garlic, 2 cloves
4 hard boiled eggs
1/4 cup of chopped pistachios
1/2 cup of Mayo
Optional:
Grapes, cut in half or chopped pears

Directions:
In a bowl add shredded chicken.
In a food processor, chop eggs, add to chicken. Then add pistachios to processor, chop and add to chicken and eggs. Add mayo and avocado, salt and pepper (to taste) and garlic and process until well blended and smooth. Top the mixture in the bowl. Add optional fruit and using a spoon, mix well. Serve with crackers, baguette or bread of choice, or just a fork.

That's it! A yummy meal in under 20 minutes!
