Healthy Avocado Chicken Salad

Healthy Avocado Chicken Salad

A hearty version of avocado toast that's easy on your diet and your wallet!
Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 chicken breast (cooked and shredded)
  • 2 avocados (pitted and diced)
  • 1/4 cup red onion (diced)
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice (divided)
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • dash hot sauce (optional)
  • dash red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 pieces toast (optional)

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, add the avocado, chicken breast, and onion, and toss with 1 tablespoon of the lime juice. Set aside.
  • In a smaller bowl, mix together the other tablespoon of lime juice with the plain Greek yogurt. You can add hot sauce or red pepper flakes at this point for some heat, but I like to add them at the end. Pour this dressing into the large bowl with the other ingredients, and toss gently to coat evenly.
  • Serve by itself or on toast with hot sauce and red pepper flakes on top, and enjoy!

Notes

  • The inspiration for this recipe came from Kalyn's Kitchen. She has a lot of nutritional information for the original recipe on her blog, so you can check that out if you're on a certain diet.
  • This recipe would also be great with corn, black beans, tomatoes, or garlic mixed in. Of course, then it becomes less of an avocado salad and more of a guacamole recipe...but who's complaining?
