  • ½ cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup salsa
  • ½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

  • Lettuce, tomato, and/or onion, optional

Instructions

  • Shred or cube the chicken as desired.

Notes

The easiest chicken to use is a rotisseire one from the grocery store. Simply shred and use in the recipe. You can also cook chicken breasts (grill/roast/boil) and then dice or shred them. Or use leftover chicken from a previous dinner.
