Low Carb Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad
This low carb cranberry chicken salad is great to make a head of time and have for lunch through out the week. You can serve in a low carb tortilla, on top of an avocado or use a dip with green peppers or celery.
Use 2 cans of chicken (hate canned chicken? Cool, use what ever chicken you like) then and stir in ½ cup of mayo, ½ cup of plain Greek yogurt, a tablespoon of Dijon mustard and salt and pepper to taste.
Fold in some low sugar dried cranberries (yes, low sugar options do exist), red onion, celery and chopped pecans. Lastly add crumbled bacon. Mix really well.
To me this is better if you cover and let sit in the fridge for an hour or so.
Side note, you can always leave out the cranberries if they don’t fit your macros.
