Creating this Keto Chicken Salad is simple and enjoyable if you follow these easy steps:

3. Mix the Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Greek yogurt, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.

4. Combine Ingredients: Add the shredded chicken and chopped vegetables to the dressing mixture. Stir until everything is evenly coated.

5. Add Fresh Herbs (Optional): If you are using fresh herbs, add them to the salad and gently mix to distribute evenly.

6. Incorporate Berries (Optional): If you want a touch of sweetness, fold in the berries gently.

7. Taste and Adjust: Sample the salad and adjust seasoning to your preference. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs as desired.

8. Chill: Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.

9. Serve: Serve the Keto Chicken Salad on its own, on a bed of lettuce, or in lettuce wraps.

With these straightforward steps, you’ll prepare a delicious Keto Chicken Salad that everyone will love!
