I prefer this recipe with marinated grilled chicken for extra flavor!
Use this one-minute mayo for a healthy swap.
Feel free to add in fresh celery or veggie of your choice for some extra crunch.
If you prefer sweeter, add more honey. If you like spice, try more Dijon mustard and pepper.
I tend to eat this straight from the bowl but it's also great with your favorite crackers or as a sandwich.
