I love the unique flavor combination in this salad. The cantaloupe and avocado are a great addition to the classic chicken salad. I also liked the addition of red onion and cilantro.

This salad was easy to make and packed with flavor. I used leftover chicken from a rotisserie chicken, and it worked perfectly. The cantaloupe and avocado were ripe and juicy, and the red onion and cilantro added a nice crunch and freshness.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken salad, but this recipe changed my mind! The cantaloupe and avocado added a refreshing sweetness that balanced out the savory chicken and mayonnaise. I'll definitely be making this again.
