Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked chicken breast
• 1 cup Red grapes
• 2 stalks Celery
• 1 cup Crumbled blue cheese
• 0.5 cup Walnuts
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 cups Mixed greens or lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Dice the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Slice the red grapes in half and add them to the bowl with the chicken.

Step 3

Chop the celery into small pieces and add it to the bowl.

Step 4

Toast the walnuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until fragrant. Let them cool slightly, then roughly chop and add them to the bowl.

Step 5

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, fresh lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Step 6

Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and stir gently to combine, making sure everything is evenly coated.

Step 7

Fold in the crumbled blue cheese, being careful not to break up the crumbles too much.

Step 8

Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Serve over a bed of mixed greens or lettuce leaves, or use it as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
