Curry Chicken Salad (Easy and So Goo
I love chicken salad and somehow I’m just now making it for the first time myself. And let me tell you, it turned out so good. I made this curry chicken salad with my son, who had never even had chicken salad before, and we both really enjoyed it. It was simple, flavorful, and came together so easily.
We had it on croissants the first day, and the next day I ate it with crackers for lunch. It is one of those meals that just works, especially when you need something quick but still really satisfying.

Chop up your onion and celery and add them to the bowl with the chicken.
In a separate bowl, add your seasonings. Then mix in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and a splash of apple cider vinegar.
Pour that mixture over the chicken.
Mix everything together until the chicken is well coated.
Serve and enjoy. Tip — let it chill in the fridge for a bit before eating if you can. The flavor gets even better.
