Ingredients
- 1 ¼ Pounds Grilled Chicken Breast or rotisserie chicken, chopped as finely as possible
- 3 Persian Cucumbers
- 1 Bunch Green Onions finely chopped
- 1 Cup Cherry Tomatoes halved
- 8 Slices Cooked Turkey Bacon finely chopped
High Protein Ranch Dressing
- ¾ Cup Fat Free Greek Yogurt
- ¾ Cup Low Fat Cottage Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Ranch Seasoning I used Trader Joe’s
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper
- 2-3 Tablespoons Water if needed to thin
Instructions
- To make this chicken salad, start by making the dressing. Add the Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, ranch seasoning, garlic, and black pepper to a blender, then blend until completely smooth. Set it aside.
- Next, chop the chicken as finely as you can, then chop the cucumbers, green onions, tomatoes, and turkey bacon. Add everything to a large bowl.
- Pour the dressing over the chicken and veggies, then toss everything together until it's fully coated.
- Serve right away, or portion it into containers for the week. Store in a covered container in the fridge for up to four days.
If the dressing feels too thick to pour, add water one tablespoon at a time until it reaches the consistency you want.
