Healthy Chicken Salad with Greek Yogurt

If you are looking for an easy no mayo chicken salad recipe, look no further! The secret to the creamy texture is a mix of greek yogurt and a little dijon mustard. I used my stove top shredded chicken recipe for this salad. Feel free to substitute grilled chicken or rotisserie chicken if you have either of those on hand.

    I made this last night and we basically fought over it. Again! I want to eat just that day after day. Sooooo good! The only thing I did different was add some lettuce. De-lish!

    How many cans of chicken would you use if we went that route?

      I have never worked with canned chicken before, but I assume 2 cups. Not sure how many cans that is.

    This is the best recipe I ever made until now, this is my new favorite lunch. I’m from France so I use grams instead of cup (quite hard to convert), add more mustard and yogourt and some Walnut kernels. So good
