Directions
Step 1
Begin by chopping the cooked chicken breast into small, bite-sized pieces or shredding it using two forks or a food processor for a finer texture.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt and low-fat cream cheese. Use a whisk or a fork to blend them together until smooth and creamy.

Stir in the Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing all ingredients thoroughly.

Fold the chicken into the mixture, ensuring that each piece is evenly coated with the creamy base.
Step 6
Taste the spread and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to preference.
Step 7
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the spread into an airtight container, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
