I truly suggest getting a better brand of greek yogurt. You want a smooth, thick texture. Pair that with the creaminess of the avocado and you swap out the heavy calorie laden mayo for taste and added protein. On a hot day, chill this chicken salad and you have a light, cool refreshing meal.

Steps

10 mins

1

In a food processor or blender, pulse the onion and celery until you have a fine chop. About four or five pulses. Set aside in a bowl.
2

In the same processor, add in the avocado, lime juice, greek yogurt, salt, pepper, paprika and sriracha if using. Pulse until smooth.
3

Cooked chicken can be shredded or very finely chopped. I prefer to chop it finely by hand. Canned all white meat chicken, drained, can be used for an even quicker meal.
4

In a large bowl, mix everything together. I chop parsley and add it in at the last minute.
5

You can serve it at room temperature or chilled for 1 hour before serving.
6

Use this in a sandwich or over a bed of lettuce. Or dip some crackers in it!
