Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Salad
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie recommended)
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 3 Tablespoons finely chopped onions
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 avocado, seeded, peeled and diced
Wraps
- About 16 leaves romaine hearts or bibb lettuce
Instructions
- Combine the chicken salad ingredients. In a medium bowl, add the shredded cooked chicken, plain Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, finely chopped onions, and lemon juice. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is creamy.
- Season and add avocado. Season the chicken mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper to your preference. Gently fold in the diced avocado, being careful not to mash it too much to keep texture.
- Prepare the lettuce wraps. Wash and pat dry the romaine or bibb lettuce leaves. Lay out the leaves to use as natural, crunchy cups for the chicken salad.
- Serve the wraps. Spoon the avocado chicken salad evenly into each lettuce leaf, and serve immediately as a cool, refreshing, and low-carb wrap option.
Notes
- You can substitute plain Greek yogurt with all mayonnaise if preferred, but yogurt adds a healthier tang and reduces fat.
- If you want extra crunch, feel free to add celery or chopped nuts to the chicken salad.
- This recipe serves as a great meal prep option; store the chicken salad and lettuce separately until ready to serve.
- Try serving with a side of fresh fruit or a light vinaigrette for a complete meal.
