Hummus Chicken Salad is a very easy chicken salad recipe and a wonderful twist to the traditional
 

chicken salad. Most chicken salad recipes are made with mayonnaise, sometimes along with a few other diced ingredients and seasonings. This chicken salad is made with hummus rather than mayonnaise, giving it light and refreshing taste as well as healthful benefits. Diced celery, green onions and red bell pepper are also added into the mix, providing a fresh and tasty crunch with every bite.

 

You can use any flavor of hummus with this recipe, giving it your own personal flair. Photo above shows this recipe made with garlic and artichoke-flavored hummus. This easy chicken salad recipe can be served on bread

as a chicken salad sandwich (as shown above), or served atop lettuce greens. This salad can also be made with turkey, which comes in very handy for those Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey leftovers!
