HEALTHY WALDORF CHICKEN SALAD



Healthy Waldorf Chicken Salad image

Chicken salad is one of the most versatile sandwich fillings. You can go bold by adding in hot sauce and celery with carrots, you can go sweet with grapes and oranges, or even go exotic with curry. The one factor is generally mayonnaise, and while creamy and delicious, it packs excess fat and calories. My Waldorf chicken salad lightens up with Greek yogurt. Savory Spice Shop® Park Hill maple pepper is a match made in heaven with this recipe.

3 ounces plain Greek yogurt
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
⅛ teaspoon poppy seeds

salt to taste
6 ounces chopped, cooked chicken
½ cup chopped Honeycrisp apple
¼ cup chopped toasted walnuts
1 tablespoon milk, or as needed

Tips

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad.
  • If you can't find celery root, you can substitute another crunchy vegetable, such as jicama or water chestnuts.
  • To make your salad more flavorful, try adding a teaspoon of curry powder or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • If you're watching your weight, you can use low-fat yogurt or Greek yogurt in place of regular yogurt.
  • For a vegan version of this salad, use plant-based yogurt and omit the honey.

Conclusion
