Description
A creamy and satisfying chicken salad made with Greek yogurt, packed with protein and perfect for meal prep.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 to 3 cups cooked chicken, chopped or shredded
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional)
- 1 to 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons red onion or green onion, chopped
- 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh dill or parsley (or both)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional add-ins: grapes, chopped nuts, diced apple, pickles
Instructions
- Add chicken to a big bowl. I like bite-size pieces so every scoop feels balanced.
- Add Greek yogurt, mustard, lemon juice, herbs, celery, and onion.
- Stir until everything is coated. If it looks dry, add another spoon of yogurt.
- Taste it. This is where you adjust. Add more salt, pepper, lemon, or dill until it pops.
- Chill for 10 to 20 minutes if you have time. The flavor gets better after it sits.
Notes
Perfect for meal prep and holds up well in the fridge. Adjust seasoning to taste for best flavor.
