Chicken Salad w/Greek Yogurt

So want chicken salad, but don't like mayo, or want a healthier version of the classic mayo version? And a great thing about chicken salad is that you can add different things to it such as fruit; grapes, dried cranberries, or apples, or vegetables; cucumbers, celery, or even shredded carrots (yes it does sound weird, but it tastes great!)

So lets get started!
~~~
Here's what you will need for the basic recipe!

Shredded chicken, for this you can use pre-made chicken, or make some fresh
Plain greek yogurt
Other things that you can add include; grapes, apple, carrots, celery, nuts, cucumbers, dried cranberries, or raisins, etc.
~~~
1. If your chicken isn't already shredded, then do so, you can do this by either taking a fork and going up and down on the piece of chicken, or just peeling it with your fingers.

2. Put your chicken in a bowl, large enough to mix all of your ingredients together. Then, add 1-3 Tbsp of plain greek yogurt into the bowl, you may need to use more then 3 Tbsp, depending on how much chicken you are using, and mix the chicken and yogurt together; add more yogurt if needed, to get to your liking.

3. Add any other things you would like, some things that pair well together are apples, and walnuts; and dried cranberries, grapes, and pecans.
~~~
So as you can see, this is a very simple recipe, that can only talk like 5-10 minutes at the most; if you have the chicken all ready. So I hope you enjoy this recipe! Have fun making this if you decide to! :3
