Low Carb Chicken Salad
This is my go-to lunch on a busy day: high-protein chicken salad served on apple rounds instead of bread—because who says healthy can't be delicious? This easy swap not only lowers the carbs but also gives your body the nutrients it needs to thrive.
A high-protein, low-carb diet is key for hormone health, helping to stabilize blood sugar levels and support balanced cortisol. Plus, it aids in weight management by keeping you full and energized without the carb crash.
What you’ll need:
2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
2 celery ribs, finely chopped
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1.5 tbsp unsweetened coconut yogurt
3 tbsp avocado mayo
The juice of half a lemon
1 apple, sliced into rounds
salt and pepper to taste
Directions (makes 2 servings):
Cut your apple into thin rounds to replace your bread or bagel.
Combine all of your ingredients for your chicken salad mixture and season to your liking.
Spread your chicken salad mixture over your apple slices and enjoy!
