Chicken Salad Pasta
I was definitely one of those people who didn’t eat anything in a white creamy sauce when I was growing up. I was not one to reach for the egg salad EVER! But I recently fell in love with this Chicken Salad Pasta recipe that still uses that white creamy sauce but this time it’s yogurt and not mayo.
There are so many of your favorites that can be added to a chicken salad. I used chicken, celery, red onion, green apples, and shell pasta.
The sauce is made up of greek yogurt and lemon juice…that’s it!
Mix everything together and you are set!
This is perfect by itself or pair it with some fruit or a sandwich for a girls lunch!
