Low Carb Chicken Salad

Our dill pickle chicken salad is packed with… you guessed it, dill pickles. Aside from the pickles we added celery for crunch and freshness. It really is simple to whip up any time of the day.  Sometimes we eat chicken salad as a late night meal when it has been a long day. When eating the keto or lwo carb way, it is essential to get the proper amount of electrolytes. The addition of so many dill pickles not only provides sodium, but a huge flavor kick as well.

Why is Chicken Salad So Popular

We have a few theories as to why chicken salad is so popular. The first being the most obvious…  how easy it is to make. There are so many types of chicken you can use-  canned, rotisserie, legs, breasts etc.  Leftovers kicked off the craze. Pinterest helped people realize that many ingredients can be tossed into your chicken and mayo mixture.

Chicken salad will take on the flavors of everything you mix into it, making it fun to experiment with so popular.
