Texas Mesquite Chicken Salad

smoked chicken with celery, chives & tart apples in a pepper-cream dressing

Our cold water prep, protein packed (40g) Texas Mesquite Chicken Salad captures the flavor of mesquite-smoked chicken (cage-free) mixed with fresh-tasting onions, peppers, celery, and a burst of tart apple — tossed with a pepper-cream dressing!

With the equivalent of 1/3 pound of fresh chicken, this hearty lunch can be enjoyed straight from the pouch or paired with a BYO-Bread-product of your choice!

UPDATE for long-time buyers of our Texas Mesquite Chicken Salad - our chef has magicked away the mayonnaise packets and replaced them with her own powdered recipe. Less weight, less mess, less trash but ALL of the same great flavor!

Break from the uninspired trail meal and reach for this modern twist on chicken salad. "I loved the big, juicy hunks of meat with peas and currants, seasoned with mango and fragrant curry powder," says one tester, who rehydrated this cold-water-prep wrap on-trail in Washington's Wenatchee Mountains. "I stopped for one minute to add water to the bag so it would rehydrate while I hiked. Twenty minutes later, I sat down for a gourmet lunch." Mix in the included packet of ranch dressing to add creaminess - and an extra 11 grams of fat per serving. Great for chilly weather. BYO bread or tortilla.

    This was the perfect lunch. I added water before I left camp and by the time I was ready for lunch it was completely rehydrated. I added mayo and just ate with a spoon. The chicken perfectly, as if it had never been dehydrated and the flavor was great. It could have used a bit more mayo, but I ate it all anyways.

    I really liked these and was so impressed with the freeze-dried chicken; I bought the 10oz pack to make my own mixes. No more heavy, wet, chemically chicken in a pouch for me.

    Another yummy wrap. Enjoy the apples and cranberries flavors. Usually add another mayo packet and hot sauce to make it more to my taste.

    This wrap is very tasty and filling. It would be really good to add cheese and hot sauce. I will be getting it again! Perfect for lunch or dinner on a warmer night.

    Break from the uninspired trail meal and reach for this modern twist on chicken salad. "I loved the big, juicy hunks of meat with peas and currants, seasoned with mango and fragrant curry powder," says one tester, who rehydrated this cold-water-prep wrap on-trail in Washington's Wenatchee Mountains. "I stopped for one minute to add water to the bag so it would rehydrate while I hiked. Twenty minutes later, I sat down for a gourmet lunch." Mix in the included packet of ranch dressing to add creaminess - and an extra 11 grams of fat per serving. Great for chilly weather. BYO bread or tortilla.

      Very good. Lots of protein, fine on its own without carb wrap. Strongly recommended!

      Very flavorful. Great for lunch or dinner. Had it in a wrap with some extra mayo. I will definitely get this one again!

      This was the perfect lunch. I added water before I left camp and by the time I was ready for lunch it was completely rehydrated. I added mayo and just ate with a spoon. The chicken perfectly, as if it had never been dehydrated and the flavor was great. It could have used a bit more mayo, but I ate it all anyways.

      I really liked these and was so impressed with the freeze-dried chicken; I bought the 10oz pack to make my own mixes. No more heavy, wet, chemically chicken in a pouch for me.

      Another yummy wrap. Enjoy the apples and cranberries flavors. Usually add another mayo packet and hot sauce to make it more to my taste.

      This wrap is very tasty and filling. It would be really good to add cheese and hot sauce. I will be getting it again! Perfect for lunch or dinner on a warmer night.
