Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/2 cups diced cooked chicken breast
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped red onion
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. Whisk the yogurt, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until smooth.
  2. Add the chicken, celery, and red onion; toss gently to combine.
  3. Fold the dressing into the chicken mixture until evenly coated, then stir in the almonds and parsley. Serve right away.

Notes

This salad gets even better after an hour or two in the fridge. If you’re meal prepping, store the almonds separately so they keep their crunch.
