2 lbs cooked chicken breast, cubed or shredded
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (non-fat or full fat)
1/3 cup buffalo sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp dried dill

Salt and pepper to taste
For Serving: Romaine lettuce, cucumber slices, or crackers
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, salt, and pepper until smooth.
2. Add the cooked chicken to the bowl and toss until fully coated in the sauce.
3. Fold in the diced celery, red onion, and shredded carrots.
4. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more buffalo sauce if you like it spicier.

6. Pack lettuce, cucumber slices, or crackers in separate compartments or bags to keep them crisp.
7. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Notes
**Chicken Tip:** A rotisserie chicken is the fastest way to make this. Just remove the skin and shred the meat.
**Dairy Free:** Swap the Greek yogurt for a dairy-free yogurt or mayo (though calories will be higher with mayo).
