My favorite meal prep honey mustard chicken salad! Made without mayo (I’m a mayo hater), full of sweet and savory flavors, and loaded with the perfect crunch from walnuts and apples. Every bite is satisfying, and it makes such a delicious and easy high protein lunch!

Serve with:

• Lettuce wraps
• Crackers (I love an almond flour cracker for more fiber and protein)
• Your favorite bread
• Crunchy veggies for dipping

This honey mustard chicken salad is one of my favorite recipes to meal prep for the week, or to just whip up on a whim quickly when I have leftover chicken on hand! It’s ready in less than 10 minutes and provides such great protein to keep you full and energized.

It’s creamy and flavorful while still being light, and made totally without mayonnaise. It’s loaded with fresh, nourishing ingredients like apples, celery, walnuts, and Greek yogurt. It’s simple, satisfying, and perfect for a weekday lunch!

Let me know if you give this recipe a try! Enjoy! xo
