Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and diced
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- Juice of 1 lime

- Prepare Ingredients: Ensure the cooked chicken is shredded or diced evenly for easy mixing and serving.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, gently mix the chicken, diced avocado, Greek yogurt, and lime juice until well combined but still chunky.
- Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, stirring gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes to let flavors meld and serve chilled for best taste and texture.
Notes
- Use fresh lime juice for a bright, tangy flavor.
- Optional add-ins: chopped cilantro, diced red onion, or a pinch of cayenne pepper for heat.
- Serve with whole grain bread, crackers, or on a bed of greens for a fuller meal.
- Best consumed within 1 day to prevent avocado browning.
