I love avocado and chicken, so I'll try this recipe. Looks really good! 👍❤️
I live in MEXICO and I’m lucky to have two large avocado 🥑 trees in the backyard…. I can’t wait to make this !
I have found the best way to make guacamole or mashed avocado is to place the lime juice, salt and seasonings in a bowl and mix with a fork until dissolved. This ensures that they are evenly distributed throughout. It also prevents it from turning brown! Love your recipes! Thank you for sharing!
I happen to be one of those people who does not love cilantro, and what I like to use as a tasty substitute for it in recipes is finely chopped celery. This avocado chicken recipe looks delicious and healthy, so I will definitely be trying it with my favorite substitute for cilantro. Thank you for creating loads of recipes that are tasty but healthy versions of foods that many people feel they have to give up for health reasons, but now don't have to!
I'm going to substitute chicken with shrimp!! Yumm
Would definitely love your slow-cooker chicken recipe. can't wait to make this.

What’s wrong with mayo or yogurt? Especially yogurt. Sigh.
From a family that uses avocados a lot, i suggest mashing with a fork on a plate. It's much easier than a bowl. Fork is easier to clean than a masher. It actually saves a bit of work to add your additions to the chunks of flesh before mashing.
This looks great! I bought chicken breasts today and realized that I was tired of all my usual chicken salads. Your timing is perfect 😊
❤❤❤❤❤ YES, YES a recipe with chicken using the slow cooker! Can’t wait to try this recipe. Yum!😊

A whole roasted chicken is cheaper than a raw whole chicken it kind of doesn't make sense just be careful where you buy rotisserie, some places inject stuff you don't want
Looks so delicious! I'm definitely getting the ingredients to make this chicken salad on Sunday. Thanks, Dani, for this super easy, dairy-free recipe.

Thank you , for that chicken avocado recipe looks really delicious! Can’t wait to make it! I would like to see the chicken recipe in the slow cooker!
Wonderful salad! My guy doesn't like avocado, so we put the avocado/garlic/lime to the side and piled the chicken on top of romaine, tomato, pickled red pepper, cuke, spring onion, & garnished w/chives and fresh parsley. I added feta and balsamic vinegar to mine...he dressed it w/italian dressing and balsamic.
I made it today. Thank you! Delicious!
This looks so good! Must try!
Yes please to any slow cooker recipes!
Yeah!! for the addition of radishes. Thanks.

Oh my! 1. Just eat it. Slice in half, remove pit. Eat. 2. Make guacamole. You need no other reason to eat avocados!! Scoop out flesh, add salt, cream/sour cream/mayo/milk (to thin somewhat), chopped cilantro, some salsa if you have it, mash and mix thoroughly. Viola! Enjoy! 3. Scoop out chunks into a salad. 4. Put some slices on your sandwich. 5. Plain or guacamole style makes a great healthy low carb side dish to anything.
I love your recipe!! Will try!!! I subscribed. : )
I have been making my chicken salad for years using a combo of Greek yogurt/mayo (70/30), but love the idea of the avocado substitution. I also love that you are using the rotisserie chicken instead of boiled breasts. That's another key to my chicken salad, as it has more flavor and is juicier and more tender, IMO... Liked, and subbed. Also definitely do the crockpot thing you talked about...
Just Subscribed. Love this 🥑🐔 Good idea for a Saturday Nite. Thank you and all the best, Janelle from the Bay Area of California ❤

How long will this last in the fridge? Also, will the avo turn brown if you don’t use it up in say, 3 days? Looks yummy!
I add a diced red or green apple, crushed walnuts, eat half for lunch, half for dinner.
Slow cooker shredded chicken? Yes, please!
Yes for the chicken!

This looks delicious I'm not a fan of onions or radishes or Peppers so I could make this with some chives that would probably work
Such a fabulous recipe. And GORGEOUS. That color pepper is exactly what you said, FUN! Looks like a party in a bowl, CONFETTI! 🎉PS. Hey friends, I mash the avocado in the half skin, right in the palm of my hand. The skin is flexible and you can get the job done so much faster.
@juliefriedrich92
Ай бұрын
If it's real ripe I just squeeze it out of the skin and it's soft enough not to need mashing.
Is a good idea to wash your cilantro before chopping. It comes with dirt particles even the ones that say washed.
