Traditional Spread for chicken and Cheese Salad

Ingredients

Regarding the Spread:

1. One cup of chopped cooked chicken (deli or leftover chicken can be used)
2. One cup of shredded cheddar cheese, or your preferred cheese blend
3. Half a cup of mayonnaise
4. One tablespoon of yellow mustard, also known as Dijon mustard
5. 1/4 cup celery, finely chopped
6. 1/4 cup of red or green onions, chopped finely
7. 1/4 tsp garlic powder
8. 1/4 tsp black pepper
9. Add salt to taste, if necessary.

To Serve:

• Bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks for spreading or dipping

Directions

Mix the ingredients:

• Diced chicken, shredded cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, chopped celery, chopped green onions, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt (if needed) should all be combined in a large mixing dish.

Blend Well:

• Mix everything together until it’s well blended. You can combine everything well using a spatula or a fork.

Modify the seasoning:

• Adjust the seasoning by tasting the spread and adding additional mustard, salt, or pepper if necessary.

Calm down:

• Either move the spread to an airtight container or cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the flavors combine by refrigerating for at least half an hour.

Serve:

• Accompany the chilled chicken and cheese salad spread with bread, crackers, or veggie sticks. It’s also a fantastic stuffing for sandwiches.

Advice

• Customize It: You can add additional ingredients, such as sliced bell peppers, diced pickles, or paprika for taste.
• Storage: Keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to three days in an airtight container.
• Variations: For a different taste profile, you can use beef or turkey in place of the chicken
