The Low Carb Kitchen: BBQ Chicken Salad

Who doesn't love bbq but I have never thought of adding it to chicken salad. It was very good with my secret ingredient.
The ingredients:
2 chicken breasts shredded apprx 2 C
1/2 C mayo
1/2 C BBQ sauce
1/4 C chopped celery
1 oz cashews crushed
1 TBSP dill relish
Secret ingredient....liquid smoke a dash

The recipe:
In a bowl, add cooled chicken plus all the other ingredients and mix well to combine.

Serve on bread, in a wrap, or eat plain. I used an egg life egg white wrap. I was surprised it didn't taste like anything really.

For the liquid smoke use the same as the bbq sauce you used. I used hickory. Just a couple shakes of the liquid smoke. Don't over do it.

I used G Hughes sugar free hickory bbq sauce. Since the bbq added sweetness I used dill relish instead of sweet relish. It also did not add any carbs.
