Reduced Fat Chicken Salad

I love chicken salad but my waist disagrees.  We threw this together for a fabulous picnic lunch in Lake Powell, and it was a hit.

Ingredients:
1 rotisserie chicken plucked and diced
1 green apple diced
1 red apple diced
2 large celery stalks diced
2 green onions chopped
1 cup non-fat yogurt
2 tbsp low fat mayo
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tsp season salt
1 tsp pepper
Start by dicing all the ingredients into 1/2 inch pieces.  Then in a separate bowl, mix the mayo, yogurt, lemon juice and spices.  Toss the salad with salad with the dressing and let sit in the fridge for a couple of hours before serving.  Serve on your favorite bread, and enjoy.  A guilt free meal loaded with protein and vitamins for great energy....so you can enjoy your summer longer!
