Chock Full Of Veggies Chicken Salad

As the weather is getting nicer I find myself craving fresh fruits and veggies more than usual. The Nashville Farmer's Market is just a few miles from my house and within walking distance from where I work. Due to this, I've decided that there's no reason I shouldn't be buying locally and getting all of my produce from the Farmer's Market.

This past weekend I made a trip to the market and bought way more that I had intended. Oops :) There was just SO much good stuff and I got a bit ahead of myself. I figured that anything I don't have need for, I'll juice.

Everything seems to be SO much fresher coming from the Farmer's Market. Last week I bought a couple lemons from the grocery store and then a few days later bought some from the market. The ones I bought at the Farmer's Market were a bit smaller but ended up giving me about TWICE the amount of juice. And, they were about half the price. Done.

So, like I said, I bought a lot of stuff from the farmer's market this weekend. In need of various ways to use all of said fruits and veggies, I decided to throw it all into a chicken salad. And so I give you the Chock Full of Veggies Chicken Salad!

If you haven't figured this out about me by now, I'm a huge fan of recipes that involve me having the freedom to throw a little of this and a little of that in. Only to decided that I really like that in there so I throw a bunch more of it in. Hence why baking and I are only distant friends. I digress.

This chicken salad is very yummy, rather light, and the perfect way to squeeze in your daily dose of veggies. And like I said, it allows you the flexibility to kind of throw in whatever you so desire. I've been known to put the following in chicken salad: asparagus, all kinds of peas, all kinds of nuts, carrots, broccoli, brussels sprouts, onion, garlic, celery, apples, grapes, kale, and really anything that grows from the earth. Just go with it.

I kept this one rather simple.
