Receta Healthy Chicken Pineapple Salad
I tend to name any dish that has pineapple in it as "Hawaiian," although in fairness to my home country, pineapple has also been a traditional produce in this southern part of the Philippine islands. So let's just call this dish a healthy chicken pineapple salad. Why healthy you might ask. It's because of the dressing, I used low-fat Greek yogurt instead of regular mayonnaise. Alternatively, you can also use tofu-based vegenaise. Either way, I am sure you will enjoy this salad recipe without any trace of guilt, if you happen to be on a diet.
