Low Fat Ranch Chicken Salad |
The dressing for this tasty chicken salad is a homemade version made from fat-free yogurt. Simple ingredients like garlic and dijon mustard that you probably already have in your fridge get added to the yogurt to create a fat free dressing which then gets tossed with some diced chicken breast, peppers and celery to create a delicious chicken salad. That chicken salad can make some fantastic sandwiches for lunch or as a the base for a terrific lunch or dinner salad. It certainly is an excellent way to use that leftover chicken from Sunday dinner.
