The BEST Healthy Chicken Salad

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2.5 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken
  • 3 stalks of celery – about 1/2 cup diced
  • 1 cup sliced grapes
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup mayo
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 12 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
  • Salt and pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. – add them to a water-filled bowl with 1 teaspoon of baking soda stirred in and let them sit for about 5 minutes. Then rinse and dry them before you slice them. This removes the film on the grapes making them more flavorful.
  2. – Add the grapes to a medium bowl with the rest of the salad ingredients and toss everything together until well combined into a creamy, chunky chicken salad.
  3. – you can serve this salad immediately or store it for a few hours before serving.
