This delicious Apple and Cranberry Chicken Salad is a perfect make-ahead appetizer or salad for any party. It’s packed with flavor and perfect to meal prep. It is also perfect for weight watchers, coming in at 4 WW blue points per serving.

The recipe can easily be adjusted to reduce the points even more by using fewer dried cranberries and fat-free Greek yogurt.

Serve it chilled and it lasts great in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

I went with the classic flavor combo and added a teaspoon of mustard to add an extra bit of flavor. if you are a fan of spicy, feel free to add some hot sauce to the mix, it’s also delicious!

I used a combination of low-fat yogurt and low-fat mayonnaise to achieve that creaminess that we love with less calories and fat.

It’s versatile and can be served with raw veggies, cucumbers or lettuce to make chicken salad “boats.” This recipe is a delicious and healthy option for any occasion.
