The Quintessential Chicken Salad
This 20-minute chicken salad is creamy, flavorful, and packed full of healthy veggies and protein-rich chicken. Use store-bought Rotisserie chicken for a quick, no-cook dinner on busy weeknights. Serve on whole grain bread with lettuce and tomato or over salad greens tossed in olive oil.

Quick Chicken Fajitas
For a casual, fun get-together, set up a make-your-own-fajitas bar with the chicken filling, avocado cream, sour cream, and any other toppings you love, like pico de gallo, sliced fresh jalapeños, or crisp radish slices.

Classic Margarita
Use respectable tequila and fresh-squeezed lime juice--the ingredients define this cocktail as much as the technique.
