Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces ripe avocados
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise Can substitute with yogurt for a tangy twist.
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup celery, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, diced
  • to taste Salt and pepper
  • to taste Lemon juice Freshly squeezed for maximum flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by carefully halving the avocados. Remove the pit and scoop a little flesh to create more space for the chicken salad filling.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, diced celery, and diced red onion.
  3. Season this mixture with salt and pepper, then squeeze fresh lemon juice over it for that added zing!
  4. Generously spoon the chicken salad mixture into each avocado half, filling them until they’re overflowing.
  5. You can serve them right away, or chill in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes if you prefer them cold.

Notes

To prevent browning, enjoy your Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocado soon after preparing. Store in the refrigerator for up to a day, but keep the filling separate until just before serving. Avoid freezing the dish as the avocados will change texture.
