Cranberry Pecan Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad

This vibrant chicken salad balances creamy Greek yogurt with tender shredded chicken, punctuated by tart dried cranberries and buttery pecans for a satisfying crunch. A hint of fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon brighten the mix, while a whisper of cinnamon adds unexpected warmth. It’s a lighter take on the classic, perfect for stuffing into sandwiches, scooping onto greens, or serving with crackers. With its bright flavors and hearty textures, it’s a dish that feels indulgent without the heaviness.
