Left-Over Rotisserie Chicken Salad

Happy Labor Day Weekend!

I hope everyone gets a chance to have a picnic this weekend and here is the perfect recipe for a fast chicken salad.

 

Has this happened to you?
You go to the grocery store, your son swears he’s going to eat the rotisserie chicken you would rather not get. Then you think ok why not save myself from cooking on a hot night.
Only the chicken is tasteless and your 4 year old refuses to eat any.
If it was winter, I’d turn it into Chicken soup.
Instead Chicken Salad for a picnic to enjoy the last days of summer.

I put my little chef to work pulling all the chicken off the carcass. We made our salad together using things he likes, green grapes, pomegranate seeds and fresh dill. Viola a beautiful salad served with lemonade and pickles.

Enjoy!
