Cooking 1.0.1: Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad (Day 6)

The 17 day diet is one of my favorite places to find recipes from when I'm looking for a meal that simple, filling, and very natural. My all time favorite has to be the Greek yogurt chicken salad. Greek yogurt has become a staple in my fridge and I've started to use it it place of mayonnaise in almost every recipe I cook. It adds a great tangyness to my dishes while still keeping them low calorie and filling. Enjoy!
