This is easy, delicious, and healthy! The perfect lunch!
I like to switch things up for lunch some days rather than leftovers or the same old stuff, so I came up with this quick & easy, yummy lunch!
First, I cut up thin pieces of celery until I had about a half cup, then I drained a can of chicken and plopped it in a small bowl, for mixing. You could use cut-up cooked leftover chicken, if you have it!
Next, I added my mayonnaise and celery to my chicken, and cut up 6 deviled eggs into little chunks. I use Primal Avocado Oil Mayo, but feel free to use a sugar-free mayonnaise of your choice.
After I added my chopped up deviled eggs to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients, I sprinkled with some salt & pepper & mixed it all together. Once mixed, then it was ready for a light sprinkle of cayenne pepper and to eat! I enjoyed mine over a bed of spinach, but it would also be great on lettuce, or in a sandwich on your favorite keto-friendly bread! This made enough for two meals, so I saved my remaining half for my lunch the next day.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! Also, don’t forget to tag #KetoYum & #KetoYumFood when posting photos to your social media!

I don’t know about the canned chicken does it exist for real?
I live in France and I can imagine looking for that here!

Hi Jen, you could try ordering Canned Chicken
online. Otherwise, you can just cook some chicken breast, then cut or shred it a bit to use in this recipe. Hope you like it!

Hi! I was going to suggest using a rotisserie chicken. That’s what I’m going to do. Cheers!

Is this with six whole eggs that have been deviled or six deviled Egg halves?

Hi Nicholas! This recipe is using 6 deviled egg halves, or 3 whole eggs.

This so AMAZING! This is a dish that I would totally make for myself and probably keep for myself. My grandmother used to make something similar when I was a little girl.

I made a vegetarian version of this for my husband using Quorn “chicken” pieces. I also used 1/8 tsp smoked paprika in place of cayenne. He loved it!! I will be making this for him again.
