Ingredients (4 servings)
2 cups diced, cooked chicken breast (approximately 2-3 chicken breasts)
1 green apple, cored and thinly sliced
1/4-1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup seedless green or red grapes, halved
1 stalk celery, thinly sliced
1 green onion, thinly sliced (reserve a sprinkle for garnish)
1/2 red bell pepper, finely diced
4 tbsp. plain Greek-style yogurt
2 tbsp. mayonnaise
1-2 tbsp. Dijon or Grainy mustard
1-2 tbsp. olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1- Cook chicken breasts, if not using leftover chicken. I bake mine in a 350F oven until cooked through. When cool, dice or shred chicken.
2- Place prepared apple, walnuts, grapes, celery, green onion and bell pepper in a bowl with the chicken.
3- In a separate bowl, whisk together yogurt, mayonnaise, mustard, oil, salt and pepper until completely blended.
4- Pour dressing over dry ingredients and stir to mix. Use immediately or cover and chill.
This salad has sweetness from the apple and grapes, a bit of bite from the mustard, and crunch from the walnuts, as well as some colour from the bell pepper. It's great as a lunch, cold dinner, or even a snack served with some crackers.
