This Healthy Chicken Salad with Grapes is bursting with delicious flavors and textures! Juicy grapes, crisp apples and crunchy pecans, all topped off with a you’d-never-guess-it’s-healthy Greek yogurt dressing (secret ingredient alert!).

Ingredients:


  • 2 cups diced, cooked, skinless chicken breasts (see note)

  • 1/2 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon smooth Dijon mustard
  • For serving: spinach or other leafy greens and whole grain wraps or toasted bread for sandwiches; greens as a base for a salad plate; or whole grain crackers or endive spears for serving as an appetizer

Instructions:


  1. In a medium bowl, combine chicken, grapes, apples, pecans, and celery, stirring gently to combine.
