Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup Open Nature® plain Greek nonfat yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons O Organics® Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt-free seasoning such as Mrs. Dash Salt-Free Garlic & Herb
  • 2 cups diced skinless boneless rotisserie chicken
  • 2 stalks of celery finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup sliced or slivered almonds toasted
  • 1/4 cup dried cherries or dried cranberries
  • 4 medium apples
  • lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, mustard, lemon juice and salt-free seasoning.
  • Stir in diced chicken, celery, toasted almonds, and dried cherries or cranberries. Add salt and pepper, to taste, if desired.
  • Carefully trim the top ½-inch off a medium-sized apple with a knife, then set it aside.
  • Use a large spoon to scoop out the apple core and surrounding area, leaving about 1/3-inch of apple around the edges to make an edible apple bowl.
  • Drizzle some lemon juice around the top of the apple to keep it from browning. Fill the apple bowls with the chicken mixture and top with sliced almonds and chopped parsley to garnish.
  • Serve immediately or wrap well in plastic wrap or foil if packing for lunch or serving at a later time.
