Chicken Salad with Apples and Cranberries
Ingredients :

- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions :
Place the chicken, celery, apple and cranberries in a bowl and stir to combine and then set it aside.
In a small bowl, stir together the yogurt, mayonnaise and lemon juice.
Add this to the chicken mixture and stir to mix well.
Stir in the parsley if desired. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
