Chicken Salad

I was looking for a good chcken salad recipe for a shower I was doing. I call my daughter Lyndsey cause she said she made a really good one......now getting the exact ingredients from her was a chore.....she just made it she didn't know how much of this or that she used......and she HATES mayo and said she didn't use a lot and her chicken salad was a little dryer than most....OK well I like mayo so I was just going to do it the way I thought it should be......and man was it good...I started with only a half cup of mayo and Greek yogurt (tastes like sour cream)....it wasn't enough so added more I like a creamy chicken salad.......now if you want more grapes, celery, onions, pecans........add as much as you like.....if your a raisin fan, I was thinking golden raisins would be good.....but I don't like raisin....ha ha.......Hope you enjoy it......THANKS LYNDSEY!!!!!

1 rotisserie chicken
1/2 cup red grapes, cut in half
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2  cup celery, chopped
1/2 red onion chopped
1 cup mayo
1 cup greek yogurt
remove skin from chicken and discard...remove all the meat and cut into small bite size pieces...discard bones (or save for homemade chicken stock....Mmmm)...add all the other ingredients and fold into chicken.......


This recipe was doubled here in the pic.....had to feed a crew!!!!
