This is a great way to use up some of the Basil-Pecan Pesto that we just made. It makes the chicken taste so yummy, and pesto (with the good fat of extra-virgin olive oil) takes the place of some of the bad fat (mayo), so it's healthier.
And it's easy......Just put some pesto in a bowl. Add some avocado and a squirt of lime or lemon juice and mash it in. Stir in some mayo (preferably lite). Now mix in your shredded chicken. You can eat this as is or make a sandwich with it. Try this, because it's really good and good for you.
The avocado with the chicken and pesto sounds interesting. I love tyring new chicken salads.
