Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces cooked chicken breast, from a rotisserie chicken, shredded or diced
  • 1/4 cup celery, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons Hellman’s mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon dried cranberries
  • 1 tablespoon red onion, chopped
  • 2 medium sweet red apples, sliced into rounds, then cored

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Chicken Salad: In a medium bowl, combine the chicken with celery, mayonnaise, chicken broth, cranberries, and red onion. Stir until fully mixed. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Slice the Apples: Cut the apples into 1/4-inch thick rounds and remove the seeds. To prevent browning, toss the slices in a bit of lemon juice if you plan to prepare them ahead of time.
  • Assemble: Spoon a heaping portion of chicken salad onto each apple slice. Serve immediately and enjoy!
