Ode to Trader Joe's

I LOVE Trader Joe's! Last week my friend and I went to get groceries and I had been craving chicken salad. So, I thought I would share one of my new favorite meals that is so easy to make and super yummy!

Chicken Salad with Apricots and Endives:

Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breasts
Dried Apricots diced(as many as you want)
4 Green Onions
1/2 Cup Mayo
4 T brown or dijon mustard
2 T honey
1 T Lemon Juice
1/2 t salt
ground pepper to taste
Endive leaves

First I boiled the chicken. While I was cooking the chicken I made the dressing. Combine mayo, mustard, honey, lemon juice, salt and pepper. When chicken is fully cooked and cooled shred into bite size pieces. Combine chicken, onions and apricots and then add dressing. Serve on Endive leaves.





So yummy and easy to make! I really like how this chicken salad has so many flavors: sweetness from the honey, savory chicken, and some bitterness from the endives.
