I especially love to use rotisserie chicken (shredded or diced) because of how flavorful it is and simple to throw together. You can also use my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eatyourselfskinny.com\/air-fryer-chicken-breast\/\">air fryer chicken recipe<\/a> to quickly cook some boneless skinless chicken breasts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>celery<\/strong> \u2013 this gives the chicken salad a nice crunch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>red grapes<\/strong> \u2013 fresh grapes add little bursts of sweetness with every bite!\u00a0You could also substitute the grapes with dried cranberries, dried cherries, raisins or diced apples.<\/li>\n<li><strong>green onions<\/strong> \u2013 adds flavor and a pop of color without being too overpowering.\u00a0You could also use red onion or white onion in this if you like a stronger onion taste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>greek yogurt<\/strong> \u2013 this is a great protein-packed substitute for mayonnaise that tastes delicious once mixed with all these other ingredients. I used plain Greek yogurt<\/li>\n<li><strong>dijon mustard<\/strong> \u2013 adds some zip to this chicken salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>lemon juice<\/strong> \u2013 this brightens the salad right up and adds a nice fresh flavor to it.

Other nuts you could add include pecans, walnuts or cashews.<\/li>\n<li><strong>fresh parsley<\/strong> \u2013 I love adding fresh herbs to salads like this and you can never go wrong with parsley.\u00a0You could also add fresh dill, tarragon, basil or cilantro to this for a different type of flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>salt + black pepper<\/strong> \u2013 needed to season the chicken salad and give it flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-quaternary-background-color has-background is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Greek Yogurt?<\/h2>\n<p>Using Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise makes this chicken salad lighter, higher in protein, and lower in fat without sacrificing that creamy texture you love!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1722\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"This Healthy Chicken Salad is creamy, fresh and packed with protein!
