Re-fueling my body, especially post-workout, is super important to me every day. I make these chicken salad lettuce boats often for a quick and easy lunch packed with protein to help refuel and rebuild lean muscles. For a healthier alternative, I always substitute the typical mayo with FAGE Total 0% Plain Greek yogurt. In addition to having a rich and creamy texture, it’s delicious and only contains naturally occurring milk sugars. If you’ve been searching for that perfect go-to chicken salad recipe, you’re in the right place!
When I am really on top of things, I also make some ready-to-go snack packs with the chicken salad and keep them in the fridge. They sure come in handy for when I need a nutritious and quick snack. I’ve found if I am prepared with healthier snack options and protein-packed meals for when things get busy, then my life goes so much smoother. It helps me stay fueled and ready to take on my day and keep going!
I love eating this chicken salad in lettuce boats, on toast or rice crackers, with some whole grain crackers, or as a dip with some of my favorite veggies! FAGE Total is so versatile, and there are so many various yummy options!
