A non-boring salad recipe? We love to see it. This one’s a full-on glow-up—fresh, crunchy, and way more satisfying than your average desk lunch.

This High-Protein Apple Chicken Salad from Chelsea’s Messy Apron layers juicy rotisserie chicken (21 grams of protein per serving!) with crisp Honeycrisp apples, crunchy almonds, and antioxidant-packed cranberries for a sweet-meets-savory combo that actually keeps you full and energized.

Bonus: It’s endlessly versatile. Scoop it onto apple slices or crackers for a quick bite, tuck it into lettuce wraps, or pile it high between slices of sourdough. Basically, you can’t go wrong.

Scroll for the recipe.
