Ingredient List

• Chicken– rotisserie chicken can also be used to make tour chicken salad
• Pomegranate Seeds– pomegranate seeds can usually be found in the produce section of your local store
• Celery Stalks– Fresh celery and green onions provide a delightful crunch, adding an essential textural element to each bite.
• Green Onion– you can use the green and white parts of the green onion
• Greek Yogurt– use your favorite greek yogurt brand and percentage
• Mayonnaise– touch of mayonnaise creates a wonderfully creamy dressing that’s lighter than traditional chicken salad but still incredibly satisfying.
• Lemon– be sure to roll your lemon on the counter before you juice
• Dill– Fresh dill and lemon juice brighten the entire dish, making it feel incredibly fresh and vibrant.
• Dijion Mustard–
• Salt & Pepper

Step By Step

1. In a large bowl combine chopped chicken, pomegranate, celery, green onion & set aside.
2. In a smaller bowl, combine greek yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, dill & mustard.
3. Pour yogurt mix into chicken mix and stir until chicken mixture is coated with the yogurt mix (you may not use all of the yogurt mix).
4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve on salad, sweet potato toast or toasted bread!

Pro Tips

• Classic Sandwich: Serve it on your favorite bread, croissant, or in a pita.
• Lettuce Wraps: For a low-carb option, spoon the salad into crisp lettuce cups (butter lettuce or romaine work beautifully).
• On Crackers: A perfect appetizer or snack with whole-grain crackers or rice cakes.
• Stuffed Avocado: Halve an avocado and fill it with a generous scoop of the chicken salad for a healthy and satisfying meal.
• Salad Topper: Add a scoop to a bed of mixed greens for a complete and balanced meal.
