Zero-Point Creamy Chicken Salad (WW-Friendly Favorite)

Description

This Zero-Point Chicken Salad is creamy, satisfying, and ridiculously easy to make. Made with lean chicken breast, crunchy veggies, and a light, tangy dressing, it’s perfect for sandwiches, lettuce wraps, or straight out of the bowl (no judgment). It’s high in protein, low in calories, and so good you’ll want it every week—clearly

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded or diced skinless chicken breast

  • ½ cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt

  • 2 tbsp light mayo (optional – keeps it ultra creamy; omit for true zero)

  • 1–2 stalks celery, finely chopped

  • 2 tbsp red onion, finely diced

  • ½ cup chopped green grapes (optional but amazing)

  • 1–2 tsp Dijon mustard

  • 1 tsp lemon juice

  • Salt & black pepper, to taste

  • Garlic powder or onion powder (optional)

Optional Add-Ins (still low/zero points depending on plan):

  • Chopped dill or parsley

  • Pickles or relish

  • Scallions

  • Lettuce & tomato for serving

  • Turkey bacon or bacon crumbles (adds points but worth it if desired)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, add the cooked chicken.

  2. Stir in Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and light mayo (if using).

  3. Add celery, onion, grapes, and seasonings.

  4. Mix until fully combined and creamy.

  5. Chill for at least 30 minutes for best flavor (optional—but recommended).
