This chicken salad is packed with so much goodness. The added pineapple tidbits, diced apples, and grapes makes this salad incredibly delicious.

What ingredients do I need to make this Skinny Chicken Salad?

• Pineapple Tidbits: the pineapple tidbits adds a bit of sweetness. Be sure to drain the juice, otherwise the point value will be affected. If the pineapple tidbits are drained from the juice, they are Zero WW points.
• Apples: Gala or Pink Lady apples are perfect for this salad. Gala apples are heart-shaped and have distinctive yellow-orange skin with red striping. It’s crisp, sweet taste can’t be beat, Gala is great in salads.  Pink Lady which is a sweet-tart apple with great versatility. Pink Lady is high acid, high sugar apple with a crisp bite. It’s a bit more tart than sweet and very refreshing
• Grapes: red grapes are often considered sweeter than green grapes. Adding red grapes to this chicken salad gives this salad some crunch and sweetness. 
• Celery, Green Onion, Almonds: for added crunch and flavor. 
• Coleslaw dressing, light Kraft mayo and non fat yogurt:  I use the combination of the three to keep the calories and points low without sacrificing all the creaminess and flavor the coleslaw dressing and light mayo gives. 
• Dill, Thyme, Onion Powder, and Ginger: gives this salad a little tang, subtle, dry aroma and very slight woody flavor, which goes well with the creaminess of the dressing.
