Chicken salad "sandwich"

This is actually a recipe that my mom told me about and I modified it a little. Actually, as I am writing this post, I'm eating it for dinner. It is just so delicious that I had to share it ASAP. Chicken salad sandwiches aren't exactly what you would first think of when you think "healthy dinner", however this recipe is different. With a short ingredient list and a quick preparation time, this chicken salad sandwich can be made a weekday dinner!

Chicken Salad Sandwich 
1 cup chopped rotisserie chicken
1 celery stalk, diced
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 of an apple, diced very small
2 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise or regular mayo
1.5-2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 leaves of purple cabbage

Mix all the ingredients except for the purple cabbage in a bowl until the mayo and Dijon covers everything. Put the chicken salad inside the cabbage leaves and serve!



Serve this with sweet potato fries and a salad for a complete dinner!
Enjoy!
