I'm in a chicken salad-y mood I guess. This one's from Martha Stewart. Great in a pita or on top of a giant plate of spinach.


Ingredients

• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1/2 cup low-fat Greek yogurt
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 5 teaspoons champagne or white-wine vinegar
• 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
• 1/4 cup blanched slivered almonds, toasted
• 1/2 medium white onion, minced (1/2 cup)
• 1 large celery stalk, diced small (1/2 cup), plus leaves
• 1/3 cup dried apricots, diced small
• 1/3 cup packed fresh basil leaves, torn
• Coarse salt and ground pepper


Directions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, yogurt, garlic, paprika, and vinegar. Stir in chicken, almonds, onion, celery, apricots, and basil. Season with salt and pepper.
