Chicken salad is a common summer dish, and in the gluten community, it is eaten on bread or crackers. It becomes a dish the gluten free household may avoid. It doesn't have to be. Chicken salad can be just as good on gluten free crackers, or even as a scoop beside pickles, chips, and typical summer fare. Other options include gluten free wraps, or using a plain pizza crust as a base. Chicken salad can be made with, or without, onions and pickles. Boil the eggs the night before and allow it to soak for a few hours before eating.
