Instructions

Combine all ingredients together in a large bowl. Gently fold with rubber spatula until all ingredients are well incorporated. Cover and chill in fridge until ready to serve.
Serve with crusty bread, crackers, or in a sandwich. It's also delicious over a green salad, if you're looking to cut down on carbs. Keeps well when covered and chilled for several days.

Notes

Most chicken salads use quite a bit of mayo and sour cream. We "healthified" this recipe by using mostly yogurt and cutting the mayo in half. We still recommend the flavor of whole mayo for 1/2 cup amount, but if you prefer, you can use lowfat.
