I like trying different chicken salads, but one I am not a fan of in many chicken salads that I have tried is the dressing. Many chicken salad recipes that I have seen use a ton of mayonnaise in the chicken salad. Doing this adds a ton of calories to the chicken salad without adding much of anything else.

As I have been looking to make the chicken salad a bit healthier, while still keeping it creamy, I decided to add yogurt to it. And it’s great – the salad dressing of 0% Fat Greek Yogurt and just a bit of mayonnaise is great. The salad is still very creamy and delicious, and you are introducing more yogurt into your diet. So next time you are looking for chicken salad recipes to make chicken salad, don’t forget to use some yogurt in the dressing!

To make the Chicken Salad With Celery, Onions And Yogurt Dressing, the first thing you will need is, well, the chicken. Again, this chicken salad recipe is very versatile, so you can prepare chicken to make this salad, or you can just use leftover chicken that you have. If you have some leftover chicken breasts, or other chicken parts, just take the meat off the bones, get rid of the skin and you can use the white and black chicken meat in the salad.

For this salad, I roasted bone-in chicken breasts. The skin and the bones keep the chicken meat moist, and moist chicken meat makes a great chicken salad. Once the roasted chicken breast is done, and it cooled off, take the meat off the bones, get rid of the skin, and shred the meat.

Now, chop celery, onions and parsley. In a salad bowl combine chicken, celery, and onions. Add a bit of mayonnaise, and enough yogurt to make the salad creamy. Season with a bit of salt, freshly ground black pepper and mix to combine. Sprinkle chicken salad with parsley.

To serve this chicken salad, serve it with a simple side dish and a salad, or you can make chicken salad sandwiches, and serve them with a simple salad.
