Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded
  • 2 red apples cored and diced
  • 1 ½ cups halved grapes
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • ¾ cup roughly chopped walnuts
  • Lettuce leaves for serving

Dressing

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • To make the dressing, add the mayonnaise, lemon juice and granulated sugar to a small mixing bowl. Whisk until well combined, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • To make the salad, add the shredded chicken, diced apple, halved grapes, chopped celery and chopped walnuts to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle over the dressing, and mix until well combined and all of the salad ingredients are coated in the dressing.
  • To assemble the salad, line the base of a large salad serving plate with lettuce leaves. Top with the mixed salad, and serve.

Notes

  • The walnuts can be lightly toasted in a dry skillet over a low heat for a nuttier flavor.
  • The salad could be served without the lettuce leaves if preferred.
