Spice up your chicken salad with your favorite blend. Everything bagel seasoning chicken salad is good enough to eat with a fork!

Everything Bagel Chicken Salad 

What started out as a seasoning blend for bagels has basically taken over the culinary world. I know I love it on almost anything.

I’ve made keto everything bagel chicken thighs and even low-carb everything bagel breadsticks. So it was a no-brainer to add this seasoning blend to my favorite chicken salad recipe.

The salty and nutty flavors enhance the savory chicken in the perfect way.  But before you start thinking that all I did was sprinkle some seasoning on top of canned chicken and mayonnaise, keep reading!

There is a secret ingredient that you’ll never guess. And it makes a huge difference in the chicken salad texture. 

Keto Chicken Salad 

The best thing about chicken salad is how naturally low in carbs it is. This recipe has only 2 grams net carbs in each serving – and it makes enough for six servings! 

It’s also a really versatile recipe, too. You can eat it with a fork, serve it on keto-friendly bread, or eat it in a lettuce wrap. 

And if you’re a fan of crunchy textures, then you’ll really enjoy this salad. It’s fill with finely chopped red onion, sliced green onions, and some chopped celery. The green celery gives it a good source of dietary fiber, so keep it in there. 

How To Make Chicken Salad Taste Good

I used a secret ingredient in this chicken salad that I haven’t used in other chicken salad recipes before. Instead of just using mayo or Greek yogurt, I mixed in some whipped cream cheese. 

This adds natural sweetness that brightens up the entire salad. It also makes the dressing feel lighter on your tongue, too. 

Did you know that baby spinach tastes incredible with everything bagel seasoning? It really does!

Mix this chicken salad with a handful of baby spinach and eat it with a fork. It’s a healthy salad recipe you’ll love. 

What To Eat With Chicken Salad

If you’re going to eat this as your main lunch, then make some easy keto everything bagel cheese chips to go with it. I prefer a soup with my salad  – even chicken salad. 

So mak a bowl of either low-carb dill pickle soup or some detox chicken soup to go with the salad.

Since this is such a high-protein recipe, consider serving it with some veggies. Your body will appreciate the balance of protein and fiber. 

How To Store Chicken Salad

This chicken salad is the perfect thing to add to your weekly meal prep. Store mixed chicken salad in an airtight food storage container and keep it in the refrigerator for up to three days. 

 

After three days the dressings will start to separate and the veggies will begin to soften. It’s best to eat it as soon after you make it as you can.
