🥒 Easy Zero-Point Dill Pickle Chicken Salad
This creamy, crunchy Dill Pickle Chicken Salad is tangy, fresh, and packed with protein — all while staying ZeroPoints (on most WW plans when using fat-free Greek yogurt and skinless chicken breast).
The shredded chicken makes it hearty and satisfying, while crisp celery, sweet red bell pepper, and juicy dill pickles add texture and bright flavor. The creamy dressing is made lighter with fat-free Greek yogurt and Dijon mustard, giving you that classic deli-style taste without mayo.
It’s refreshing, filling, and perfect for meal prep. Enjoy it on lettuce wraps, in a low-point tortilla, stuffed in mini peppers, or straight from the bowl.
