About
I love this Southwest Chicken Avocado Salad because it requires no cooking whatsoever because the recipe uses a rotisserie chicken! This is great for the summer months when it’s hot and you don’t want to turn the oven on, let alone, cook. I have spiced up the salad with curry and chipotle powder which gives it smokiness and heat! Serve with lettuce or as is.
