This Green Goddess Chicken Salad is LEGIT. It’s so bright, zesty and light packed full of greens and herbs with no mayo! I created this recipe based off my love of the viral Green Goddess Chopped Cabbage Salad. I took the dressing from that salad and created a Chicken Salad to pair with it! To keep things easy just use a Rotisserie chicken I buy at least one a week to have on hand for chicken salad and chicken wraps. I could literally eat this dressing by the spoonful. This is so great alone, served with crackers or on sourdough bread with micro greens or sprouts! Added bonus my kids devoured this and asked me if I could immediately make it again. Enjoy!
