Here's another amazing vegan summer recipe that will knock your socks off! We've made the most incredible chicken salad using young jackfruit and No Chick Bouillon. We made sandwiches with this chicken salad recipe and used vegan croissants from Whole Foods. If you haven't tried their croissants before they are incredible! Or you can use your favorite kind of bread. They're even good with crackers, chips, veggies or even in a salad. This recipe will make about 5 sandwiches.
If you haven't cooked with jackfruit before I highly recommend it. It has the perfect meaty texture, can absorb any flavor and filled with vitamin C, potassium & dietary fiber. Jackfruit also makes great vegan carnitas, check out our delicious carnitas recipe to make the most amazing carnitas tacos! You can thank me later ;)
