2 cups chopped grilled chicken breast
1 medium apple, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
¼ cup diced red onion
2 T. chopped walnuts
¼ cup avocado mayonnaise
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt
1 T. lemon juice

- Prepare grill for cooking.

- Combine chicken, diced apple, celery, onion and walnuts in a large bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon juice and mustard until combined.
- Add dressing to the bowl with the chicken mixture and toss well.
