Description

Chicken Salad Lettuce Wraps are a healthy and refreshing twist on traditional chicken salad, featuring diced chicken, creamy Greek yogurt, crunchy celery, sweet grapes, and nutty walnuts wrapped in crisp lettuce leaves.


Ingredients

  • Cooked chicken breast – 2 cups, diced
  • Greek yogurt – 1/2 cup
  • Celery – 1/2 cup, finely chopped
  • Grapes – 1 cup, halved
  • Walnuts – 1/4 cup, chopped
  • Lettuce leaves – 8 large leaves
  • Salt and pepper – to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken by dicing cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine diced chicken, Greek yogurt, chopped celery, halved grapes, and chopped walnuts. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves, then take a spoonful of the chicken salad mixture and place it in the center of each leaf.
  4. Fold the sides of the lettuce over the filling and roll them up tightly. Serve immediately or chill before serving.

Notes
