Slow cooker add rice or pasta and serve with a salad

Yummy Chix Salad for an anytime meal. You can lower fat and calories by using low or fat-free mayo, I make homemade because it has more flavor.

Store bought mayonnaise may be convenient, but it's usually made with soybean oil and often with added sugar. Homemade mayonnaise is delicious, especially spooned over steamed vegetables. Use it to make tuna, shrimp, or egg salad or as a base for dips or sauces such as Tartar Sauce and Rémoulade. See additional variations below.
