I played around with my best friend's recipe for chicken salad until I had one that was perfect for Thanksgiving leftovers. This salad is light and refreshing...the perfect antidote for heavy holiday eating. Plus, it's easy to prepare. -Kristy Dills, Flintsonte, Georgia

I'm not a fan of mayonnaise, so I used Greek yogurt instead in the dressing. It worked great and the salad was still very creamy.
