Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat bread rolls
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain, non-fat)
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Celery, finely diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 0.75 cup Grapes, halved
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While the oven preheats, use a sharp knife to carefully cut a circular top from each whole wheat bread roll and hollow out the center, forming a bread bowl. Place the hollowed-out bread pieces and tops on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for 5 minutes until slightly crisp.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, grapes, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated, creating a creamy chicken salad.
Step 3
Line each toasted bread bowl with a piece of lettuce to add freshness and prevent sogginess.
Step 4
Divide the chicken salad mixture evenly among the four bread bowls, spooning it gently over the lettuce.
Step 5
Serve immediately for best texture and flavor. Enjoy your Chicken Salad in a Whole Wheat Bread Bowl for a delightful and healthy meal!
