Chicken Salad
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken recommended)
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons onions, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 avocado, seeded, peeled, and diced
To Serve
- Romaine hearts or bib lettuce, about 16 leaves
Instructions
- Mix the chicken salad base: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, plain Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, finely chopped onions, and lemon juice. Stir thoroughly to blend all ingredients evenly.
- Season and add avocado: Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then gently fold in the diced avocado to maintain its shape and creaminess within the mixture.
- Assemble the wraps: Spoon the chicken and avocado mixture into individual washed and dried romaine or bib lettuce leaves to form convenient lettuce cups.
- Serve immediately: Serve these wraps chilled for a refreshing and nutritious meal. You can also try a variation like Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps for a different flavor profile.

- These wraps are perfect for a low-carb or gluten-free diet.
- You can add chopped celery or nuts for extra crunch if desired.
