Full Recipe Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or cubed
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat for extra protein)
- 2 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
- 1 cup celery, finely diced
- 1/2 cup red onion, finely minced
- 1/2 cup grapes, halved (or dried cranberries)
- 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder until the dressing is smooth and creamy.
- Add the shredded chicken, diced celery, and minced red onion to the bowl, tossing gently to ensure every piece is well-coated in the dressing.
- Fold in the halved grapes and toasted almonds, being careful not to over-mix so the grapes stay intact and the almonds keep their crunch.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving on bread, in a wrap, or over a bed of greens.
