Chicken Salad Sandwiches

I had some leftover shredded chicken in the freezer and decided to turn it into Chicken Salad for an easy meal tonight and leftovers for lunches tomorrow.  This recipe is a take-off from a Weight Watcher's version which was 3 points plus per 1/2 C serving. I love grapes more than pimentos so you'll find fresh grapes in my version.

4 C shredded chicken
1/2 C diced celery
1/4 C sliced green onions
3/4 C quartered red grapes
1/8 C dried parsley
2 T lemon juice
1/2 C mayo (reduced fat if you like)
1/4 C plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. dried basil

Mix all ingredients together and enjoy!  I served it on fresh croissants, but you could use a lower calorie bread as well or enjoy it on a bed of chopped romaine lettuce.

To enjoy later:  This recipe will not freeze well due to the mayo, so just freeze the chicken and mix together when ready to enjoy.
