Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1/2 cup dried cranberries

1/2 cup pecans, roughly chopped

1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

2 tablespoons fresh sage, finely chopped

1/4 cup Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

4 whole wheat wraps or mixed greens for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, honey, apple cider vinegar, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper until smooth and creamy.

    Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, spinach, dried cranberries, pecans, and chopped sage. If using, add in the crumbled feta cheese for an extra creamy texture.

      Mix Dressing with Chicken: Pour the dressing over the chicken mixture and toss gently until everything is well-coated.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed. If you prefer a sweeter salad, add an extra drizzle of honey.

          Assemble the Salad: If using wraps, lay out each whole wheat wrap, and divide the chicken salad mixture evenly among them. Roll tightly and slice in half for serving. Alternatively, serve over a bed of mixed greens in bowls, topped with a sprinkle of extra cranberries and pecans.

            Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy your Quick Cranberry Sage Chicken Salad immediately, or refrigerate for up to an hour to allow flavors to meld.
