Tips and Tricks for Blueberry Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocado Boats

- You can use any kind of leftover chicken you have, though chicken breast is best for this chicken salad.
- If you don’t want to serve the blueberry chicken salad in the avocado boat, another option is to slice up the avocado and serve in a lettuce wrap!
- Chicken salad is a great way to use up leftover produce or pantry staples you have on hand. In this recipe, we used green onions and blueberries and added walnuts for a little crunch.
