Mama’s Chicken Salad- Revamped! | Indianapolis Food Blogger 3


Summer calls for picnics, cook-outs, and parties. And we all need a go-to recipe to take with us. Well, enter the Chicken Salad. Popular and full of mayo- I’ve never been able to enjoy it.- until recently that is.

 As you know, I am anti-condiment for the most part. Yep, I can cook with them, but put mayo on my plate, and I’ll whimper, scream and maybe even cry!  I’ve missed out on many a potato, macaroni and chicken salad. Ironically, my mother makes a mean chicken salad that my husband just loves. Because of this, I challenged myself to take her famous Chicken Salad and make it so great, that it could be one that we both would love.

Enter Greek Yogurt! This little life hack has changed the game for me as it pertains to chicken salad. Check the photo guide and recipe below.
