Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps

One of my favorite things to grab when I’m out grocery shopping at the Health Food store is their chicken salad. Its so easy when I’m out to sneak in some protein if I’m out running around. So I had to make my own version and made these delicious and flavorful Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps. They have tons of textures and flavors and go so well on crackers, wraps, bread, or these lettuce wraps.
