Creamy Chipotle Chicken ‘Salad’

This is an example of a recipe that can be used for many different types of meals throughout the week, and the best part is, it requires NO COOKING!

It uses rotisserie chicken (pre-cooked) that you can get at almost any grocery store to make it even more convenient.

I personally prefer mine to be a little spicy, but if you don’t like spice you can either leave out the chipotle peppers all together, or tone down the amount you put in.

I love putting these on a wrap with some salad mix and salad dressing for an easy lunch, or using it as a dip with some crackers and/or vegetables for an easy snack that contains protein.
