I’ve got a quick recipe to share with y’all today, and I’m inclined to believe that you are going to really enjoy this one; Greek Yogurt Curry Chicken Salad!
Chicken salad is one of my go-to lunches, especially when I have a rotisserie chicken sitting in the fridge that needs to be used up. I love this version because the curry powder gives it AMAZING flavor, and the Greek yogurt is much healthier than traditional mayo. Plus, you get a nice crunch from the almonds and the grapes help to balance everything nicely.
This Greek Yogurt Curry Chicken Salad is delicious with crackers, on top of salad greens, OR…. my personal favorite, spooned onto a buttery croissant with some leafy lettuce for good measure. SO GOOD!

I was on the search for something healthier than my go-to Mayo heavy chicken salad and am so glad I found this recipe! I made it exactly according to the recipe and will definitely make it again. The only thing I’ll change is to add much less salt (but that is just my preference). Also, don’t skimp on the lime – I think that’s an essential ingredient!
