One of my absolute favorite chicken salads comes from H-E-B. It is so unhealthy though with 30g of fat per serving. As much as I'm looking forward to sweater weather I don't want it to be because I'm trying to hide the fat I'm packing around.
So a healthier chicken salad recipe is needed for when that craving hits.
This one uses yogurt instead of mayo which I think brightens up chicken or tuna salad and this uses a store-bought rotisserie chicken so I still get some of that H-E-B taste I know and love.
The celery was no longer good when I went to make our lunches so I had to go without. Next time I'll make sure I can add it for that crunch I like in my chicken salads... maybe with some onions too.
Chicken salad makes it's way into my son's lunchbox rotation and he loved this variation.
