Simple Creamy Chicken Salad



Recommended Posts

Even four years after surgery I still have trouble with chicken sometimes--but I figured out how to make chicken salad right after surgery that we could tolerate and enjoy during the soft foods stage. It's stupid simple but very creamy and delicious, and of course, high Protein, high fat, and low carb.

I felt stupid when I poasted it 4 years ago but it's actually very popular amongst my blog readers and on pinterest, so I figured I'd share it here. . You’ll wonder if this will be bland and tasteless with just few ingredients, but I promise you, it won’t. Super flavorful and extremely easy.

Very popular chicken salad recipe. You'll wonder if this will be bland and tasteless with just few ingredients, but I promise you, it won't. Super flavorful and extremely easy.

Equipment
Instructions
  1. Place cooked chicken meat in your Kitchenaid or other stand mixer. Use the paddle to shred the chicken. Do not skip this step! This is the key to why this salad is very creamy, moist, and just delicious. You can do this by pulsing in a food processor as well. This step is critical to finely shredding the chicken

  2. Mix in everything into the chicken, and eat.

  3. No really, it's that simple.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
