Here’s a quick and really tasty salad I like to make. It’s versatile, it works on a bed as an actual salad or on a sandwich. The cranberry gives it a little sweet and sour pucker and the cheddar balances that out. Here’s how I made it.
Cranberry Chicken Salad
INGREDIENTS
- 9 oz roasted chicken breast (if you don’t have any you can use 1x 9 oz package of Perdue Short Cuts like I did)
- 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup mayo
- shredded cheddar cheese
- salt and pepper
INSTRUCTIONS
Cube or dice the chicken and place in a bowl.
Add in mayo and stir well.
Add in the cranberries and stir gently.
Sprinkle cheddar cheese as liberally as you like across the top.
Serve and enjoy on your favorite bread or on a bed of lettuce with salt and pepper to taste.
What’s your favorite cold “salad”? Do you prefer it on bread or in an actual salad?

I love chicken salad. This variation looks so good. I also love the large lettuce - so you can eat it as a wrap or in a sandwich. Thanks for sharing :)
