Summer Chicken Salad

Serves 6-8

Ingredients:

  • 2/3 cup plain yogurt (I prefer 2% or 5% milk fat vs fat free)

  • 2/3 cup avocado mayo

  • 2 Tbsp dried basil or Penzey’s Foxpoint seasoning

  • 3/4 tsp kosher salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 2 Tbsp lemon juice

  • 4 cups shredded chicken

  • 4 stalks celery, diced

  • 1 shallot, diced

  • 2/3 apple, diced

  • 2/3 cup grapes, halved

  • 1/3 cup roasted slivered almonds

Directions:

  • Combine first six ingredients (through lemon juice) in a small bowl. Whisk together until well combined.

  • In a separate bowl, combine remaining six ingredients (chicken through almonds).

  • Pour wet ingredients over chicken mixture. Use a spatula to combine and coat. Don’t overmix.

  • Serve chicken salad on toasted bread or lettuce cups. Refrigerate leftover mixture for 2-3 days in airtight container.
