Ingredients

  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • ¾ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • Juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 celery stalks finely diced
  • 1 apple finely diced
  • cup diced green onion or red onion
  • cup shaved almonds
  • 6 pitted dates finely diced
  • Drizzle of hot honey optional

Instructions

  • Shred chicken using a hand mixer (life hack!!) or using two forks (if you're cooking your own chicken, boil it for 25 minutes in a pot of water)
  • Dice celery, apple, onion and dates
  • Whisk together yogurt, mayo, Dijon, lemon juice, salt & pepper
  • Add apple, celery, almonds, onion & dates
  • Mix well, option to drizzle with hot honey for extra flavour
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days
  • Enjoy in sandwiches, wraps, lettuce wraps or as melts

Notes

  • If you want to feel a crunch with your almonds you can store them separately and then mix them in before serving. 
  • If you're dairy free you can swap out the greek yogurt and just use mayo instead. 
  • You can leave out the dates or swap them for raisins.
