Healthy Mediterranean Chicken Salad is a high protein recipe for chicken salad with feta, sun dried tomatoes, and pesto for an easy lunch or dinner!

I am using cottage cheese in place of mayo for a lower calorie, protein packed meal.

And you can choose how to enjoy this chicken salad… on a sandwich or wrap, over lettuce, or with crackers.

How to make Healthy Mediterranean Chicken Salad

First put cottage cheese, pesto, garlic, milk, kosher salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor.

Blend until smooth, which does take about a minute.

Transfer this mixture to a medium size bowl and add chopped sun dried tomatoes, feta cheese crumbles, and cooked, diced chicken.

And simply stir until combined.

Store the chicken salad in a covered container in the fridge for a few days.

You can enjoy this tasty treat over lettuce, in a chicken salad wrap, with crackers, or on toast or naan bread.

I served Healthy Mediterranean Chicken Salad over greens with balsamic glaze drizzled over top 🙂
