This chicken salad is creamy, lightly sweet, protein-packed, and ridiculously easy to throw together. The Greek yogurt keeps it lighter while still creamy, the fruit adds crunch and sweetness, and it works for everything from quick lunches to meal-prep sandwiches.

✨ About This Recipe
This is one of those “throw it in a bowl and somehow it tastes fancy” meals. Rotisserie chicken makes it effortless, Greek yogurt keeps it lighter than traditional mayo-heavy chicken salad, and the apple + grapes give it that perfect sweet crunch.
I usually eat this on Dave’s Killer Bread, but it’s also great in wraps, lettuce cups, or straight out of the bowl with crackers or chips when life is chaotic.
Bonus: it tastes even better after chilling for a bit.
