I used my leftover roast chicken to make a simple and delicious chicken salad. I like something sweet in my chicken salad, as well as a variety of textures, so I added apples.
Especially considering that it took five minutes to make, it was ridiculously good. You can use any type of chicken, but I think that the roast chicken made it more flavorful. If you don’t have a roast chicken lying around, you could buy a pre-made one from the supermarket.
Chicken Salad with Apples

3 ribs celery, finely sliced
1 apple, diced
1/3 c mayo
