Bell Pepper Chicken Salad

4-5 cups cooked, diced chicken
¼ c. dijon mustard
2/3 c. mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip)
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 c. finely chopped celery
1 Tbsp. freeze dried chives
2 heaping Tbsp. sweet pickle relish
salt and black pepper to taste
2 heaping Tbsp. orange marmalade

Put chicken in food processor and process until it’s a fine crumble, if desired. If you prefer a chunkier salad, skip this step. In an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the chicken, mustard, mayo, pepper, celery, chives, salt and pepper. Mixture will be sticky/clumpy. Taste. Add more of anything if desired. Add marmalade last and mix just until combined. The sugars will loosen up the texture and add a slight sweetness.

Serve on sandwiches, or with crackers, chips, or veggies.
