Healthy Chicken (or) Tuna Salad Recipe

Please follow and like us:

Do you love Tuna or Chicken Salad? I do!

It’s so delicious! I love it in a sandwich, on a salad, or even served with some crackers. Heck, I like it enough to eat it with a fork, straight out of the bowl!

However, I’m not a big fan of mayonnaise. I hate the smell and taste of mayo (unless it’s well hidden in a recipe), and it’s not the healthiest option.

One of my favorite mayonnaise substitutions is Plain Greek Yogurt. Avocado is another great option! (Have you tried my Avocado Curry Chicken Salad recipe? It’s delicious!)

This recipe is a simple and nutrition loaded twist on a classic. It’s high in protein, and very filling.

I love the combination of fruit and veggies mixed into the tuna/chicken salad. The texture is interesting, and the flavor combination is so tasty! Plus, it’s a great way to add some extra fruit and veggies into your day.

Normally, I load my sandwiches with fresh baby spinach, but I ran out! Even without the extra greens, this sandwich was the perfect combination of sweet and savory, and an all around winner.

Do you have a favorite healthy variation on a classic Tuna or Chicken Salad recipe? Let me know in the comments below.

I hope you enjoy it!
