Two of my passions are cooking and blogging but my new obsession is substituting Greek yogurt for mayonnaise in recipes! Here's the first one that I've actually tried and I am a big fan!!

Cilantro-Lime Chicken Salad on an avocado (not my picture but I plan to do this next time I eat it) |
Ingredients
1 - 1.5lbs chicken, cooked and cut into small
pieces
1/4 cup chives, sliced
6 tsp lime juice
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1 sweet onion, diced
2 pinches each: garlic powder, cumin,
sea salt
1-
6 oz.
Low-Fat Greek Yogurt (plain)
1/5 cup fresh salsa
Directions
For the chicken, I used the white meat from a rotisserie chicken.
Finely chop chicken, cilantro, chives, and onions.
Combine chicken, scallions, lime juice, cilantro, onions, and salsa in a large bowl. Season with garlic powder, cumin, and salt. Stir in Greek Yogurt until chicken salad is the desired consistency.
Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve on lettuce, avocado, or pita.
