Make-Ahead & Meal Prepping

Make-Ahead:
This chicken salad is ideal for prepping in advance. In fact, it gets even better after a few hours in the fridge, once all the flavors meld together. You can make it up to 2 days ahead of time, just keep it covered tightly in an airtight container.

For Meal Prep Lunches:
Divide the finished salad into small airtight containers for easy grab-and-go lunches throughout the week. Add a separate container of crackers, croissants, or lettuce wraps for serving, and you’ve got the easiest packed lunch around!
