Shredded or diced. Rotisserie chicken works great here, or make a batch of my Crockpot Shredded Chicken.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Greek Yogurt<\/strong>. Adds creaminess and a little tang without the heaviness of mayo.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lemon Juice<\/strong>. Brightens everything and keeps the avocado from browning.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dijon Mustard<\/strong>. Adds subtle depth and a little zip.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Avocado<\/strong>. Rich, creamy, and buttery, this makes the chicken salad dressing feel decadent.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Red Grapes<\/strong>. A pop of sweetness that balances the savory flavors. Dried cranberries or chopped dried apricots can be swapped in if you\u2019d like.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Celery<\/strong>. For that fantastic crisp bite and fresh flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fresh Herbs<\/strong>. Dill or tarragon add a fresh, herby finish.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Almonds<\/strong>. Toasted for extra crunch and nuttiness. Cashews are a good option too!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-white-background-color has-background\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained
