Apple Jalapeno Chicken Salad

This isn't your grandma's chicken salad! This one has a light kick from the jalapenos, tons of crunch, and a "must have some more" flavor.
2 Shredded (fully cooked & cooled) Chicken breasts
3-4 Sweet Crisp apples (I used Pink Ladys)
1-2 Large Fresh Jalapenos
3 - Chives (Green onions)
1 - Orange
3 - Radishes
1.5 Teaspoons - Celery Seed
1 Teaspoon - Pepper
1/3 cup - Apple Cider Vinegar
1/2 Cup - Mayo (Try cutting the calories with fat-free, or reduced fat)
Chopped the apples into small pieces and place in a medium sized bowl.
Cut the orange into small pieces and mix in with the apples.
Second:
Shred your chicken breasts. I used the rotisserie style pre-cooked chickens from Costco.
Place in your bowl with the apples.
Third:
Chop the radishes into small pieces.
Deseed the Jalapenos and chop into small pieces
Chop the chives (green onions). I used the white and green portions.
Place it all in your bowl of apples and chicken.
Forth:
Add the celery seed and black pepper.
Add mayo.
Add Vinegar.
Fifth:
Stir it up! If it needs more "wet" ad some more vinegar or Mayo to taste.
Divided the salad into 6 portions: Each portion has 203 Calories, 14 carbs, 14 fat grams, 6 protein, 136 Sodium, and 10 grams of sugar. (Could be less with less fat mayo)
