Ingredients

Salad

  • 280 g cooked shredded roast chicken.
  • ½ small red onion finely diced.
  • 2 medium white potatoes cut into small cubes.
  • 100 g frozen peas
  • 100 g frozen sweetcorn
  • 20 g pine nuts toasted.

Salad Dressing

  • 100 ml No fat Greek yogurt
  • 100 ml Reduced fat Mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Freshly Salt and Black Pepper to season

Instructions

  • Place the potato cubes in a pot of boiling salted water and cook until the potatoes are just tender but not falling apart. You want a bit of a bite to them. Then drain using a colander.
  • Either microwave the peas and frozen sweetcorn until cooked or simmer together in a pot until cooked through. Then drain.
  • Place all the dressing ingredients into a Pyrex glass jug mix well then season to taste.
  • Add the chicken, onion, cooked vegetables, pine nuts and dressing into a large mixing bowl and toss to coat everything well.
  • Allow to chill in fridge for at least 1 hour before serving.
