Instructions

Shred chicken into thin strips. If cooking chicken, use boneless skinless chicken breasts blanched in lightly salted water for 14-16 minutes until cooked and shreddable.
In a large bowl, combine diced vegetables with yogurt, lemon juice, mustard, and spices. Then, add the shredded chicken and stir well.
Gently mix in quartered grapes and taste the salad. Adjust flavors by adding more lemon or salt if necessary.
To serve, toast some sandwich bread and add the chicken salad or serve on greens as a traditional salad or dip with crackers.

Notes

For added flavor, try substituting some of the yogurt with a little mayonnaise if preferred.
Feel free to customize by adding nuts or other fruits like apples for different textures.
