I’m sure we’ve all had more than a few versions of chicken salad, but many of them are mayonnaise-laden and full of unhealthy fats.
It doesn’t have to be that way. So, I came up with a clean eating chicken salad recipe that will nourish your body and please your palate. And it’s tasty, convenient, easy and perfect for a healthy lunch or dinner.
It is specifically designed to help you win the fight against toxins which can make you feel heavy and sluggish.
One of the best way to ensure that your body stays healthy and strong is to avoid unnatural processed foods. Incorporating a diet that’s high in macronutrients and low in processed ingredients will help you achieve that goal.
Simple Ingredients
This clean eating chicken salad is filled with simple but healthy ingredients, making it perfect for those on a clean-eating diet or those just looking to focus on better nutrition.
That’s why we skip the mayonnaise and swap it for a healthy plain Greek yogurt to give your body a boost of much-needed probiotics. Combine that with the protein-packed chicken, almonds, onions, and grapes to create the perfect filling for those whole-wheat pitas or gluten-free, whole wheat, bread. If you’re trying to cut back on carbs, serve this tasty, clean eating chicken salad on a bed of lettuce. It’s also great rolled up in chard leaves, which make a great gluten-free tortilla replacement
