Q & A
Q: Can I make these ahead?
A: Yes! Store the chicken salad in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Assemble bites just before serving for best crunch.
Q: Can I skip the mayo completely?
A: Absolutely. Use all Greek yogurt—still creamy, still delicious.
Q: What else can I serve them on?
A: Wonton cups (baked), romaine leaves, cucumber rounds, or even stuffed into cherry tomatoes.
Q: Can I add fruit like grapes or apples?
A: You can, but it may increase the points slightly—still worth it if you want that sweet crunch.
