  • Cooked Shredded Chicken: Read below for my tips and tricks on shredding chicken. Another great idea is to keep frozen shredded chicken on hand.
  • Grapes: This is the ingredient that usually throws people for a loop, but it adds such a perfect texture and sweetness to the recipe.
  • Red Onion: I love red onions in salads because they bring a subtle sweetness with their onion taste.
  • Celery: The celery in this recipe adds the perfect crunch.
  • Mayonnaise: We are using mayo as the base of our chicken salad dressing. You should feel free to use light mayo. It cuts some calories without sacrificing taste or texture.
  • Lemon Juice: A little lemon juice goes a long way in this recipe to add sense of freshness.
  • Salt: As with all recipes, you may want to start with just a little salt and add more once you taste the dressing.
  • Garlic Powder
  • Onion Powder
  • Black Pepper
