Ingredients
Scale
1 cooked chicken breast, diced or shredded
2 mini cucumbers, sliced
1/3 cup cottage cheese
1/2 small avocado, chopped
1 tsp olive oil
1 tbsp Kewpie mayo
1 tsp red wine vinegar or lemon juice
2 tbsp Kalamata olives, sliced
1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- In a medium or large jar (or tall to-go container), layer all the ingredients.
- Add the lid, shake it up until everything is mixed and creamy.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.
- Eat straight from the jar or pour it into a bowl if you’re feelin’ fancy.
Notes
- Wanna keep it dairy-free? Swap the cottage cheese for a thick vegan yogurt and skip the mayo or use a plant-based one.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge—it holds up for a good day or two.
- Don’t skimp on the dill. Trust me on this one.
