Lightened-Up Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad Sandwich

When Jason came to visit last weekend, I sent him off with some freezer-friendly meals and a batch of chicken pesto along with a loaf of bread. With his crazy school schedule, I know that he doesn’t have much time to cook and he’s even lost about 10 pounds in a semester so I always bug him about what he’s eaten.

So with that in mind, here’s how our phone conversation went last night:

          Me: Did you have dinner yet? What’d you eat?

          Jason: The chicken pesto you made me.

          Me: So you made a sandwich?

          Jason: No. I ate it by itself.

          Me: (confused) Why didn’t you eat it with the bread?

          Jason: Because it tastes better without it.

Boys, right? At least he’s eating so I guess I can’t complain too much!

So as you can tell from the chicken pesto I made not too long ago, I love making a chicken salad type mixture and lightening it up with Greek yogurt (my new obsession). And that’s exactly what I did here with a blend of so many fun ingredients, from the tart apples, to the sweet cranberries and the juicy, plump grapes. With some freshly squeezed lemon juice and garlic powder, you won’t be missing the mayo at all!
