A Chicken Salad Pita Day
When I first glanced at this recipe, I wasn’t sure. It sounded weird and not appealing. When I picture a “chicken salad” in my head – especially one that will be put in a pita – I think cold, creamy, heavy mayo-based. Don’t you? Well I was proven so wrong. It is different and delicious! I substituted celery with onion because I didn’t have any celery on hand. Instead of milk, I drank water. It’s so refreshing.
Absolutely to die for! I am making this again. As soon as possible.
