Description
Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad is a creamy, healthy twist on the classic recipe, made with tender chicken, crunchy veggies, and a tangy Greek yogurt dressing. It’s light but satisfying, perfect for wraps, sandwiches, or served on its own. I love how it packs in protein and freshness while still feeling rich and comforting.
