If you are looking for a fun variation on the classic chicken salad Tzatziki Chicken Salad is just what you need in your life. It is light, fresh and healthy. The Greek yogurt makes it creamy without being heavy. The cucumber and fresh dill bring a brightness along with their flavor.
I like to serve this over a green salad that is lightly dressed with olive oil and lemon juice. The entire combination comes together to form the perfect healthy meal!
