Quick And Simple Chicken Cucumber Avocado Salad is a perfect salad to throw together at any time of the day!
This Chicken Cucumber Avocado Salad is another one of those recipes that is so simple to throw together. Especially good on days you need something so simple and quick to throw together without any cooking needed.
Rotisserie Chicken
The greatest part about this salad is using rotisserie chicken from your local favourite chicken place or supermarket. You could ALSO make this with any left over roast chicken you have lying around somewhere, OR cook some up IF you really REALLY have to. Either way, this salad is so versatile, make it however you please.
With so many salads being made and posted on this blog (here’s a list of 18 of my favourites), there’s always cooking involved, which is great for the types of original salads I come up with, but not always possible due to… well… life.
This Chicken Cucumber Avocado Salad changes all that.

Hi Karina! I made this for dinner tonight and we LOVED it! So filling, fresh and delicious. We’re covered up with cucumbers from the garden so I know I’ll make this again. Adding this great recipe to a roundup later this week!

You’re welcome Lib!
Lib says
Let me start by saying I love your menus!! I live in a house of picky eaters and also very trying dietary issues. Do you have any suggestions for substituting the cucumber?? Half the family hates it unless it’s in pickle form.
Karina says
Hi Lib! Thanks so much! What about green peppers (or capsicums), or just romaine lettuce? Both will add crunch and move flavours 🙂
