Ingredients in Chicken Salad Croissant Recipe
- Chicken- has a very high protein content, which plays a very important role in sustaining our muscles. Rich in calcium and phosphorous for healthy bones. Stress reliever with tryptophane and vitamin B5. Immunity booster too!
- Mayonnaise- offers surprising nutritional and cosmetic benefits when consumed in moderation. It is an excellent source of healthy unsaturated fats and provides essential fat-soluble vitamins.
- Lemon juice- offers significant health benefits, primarily due to its high vitamin C, antioxidant, and citric acid content. It aids in boosting the immune system, improving digestion, promoting hydration, and enhancing skin health by supporting collagen production. Additionally, it helps prevent kidney stones and promotes heart health, say Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials, Northwestern Medicine, and Healthline.
