This super simple salad is so easy, yet so tasty! Avocado is used to replace the typical mayonnaise that is used in chicken salads and gives this recipe such great flavor and makes it such a healthier option! The addition of grapes/apples, gives a sweet punch of flavor that complements the other ingredients so well!
