1/2 cup celery, finely diced
1/3 cup toasted almonds, chopped
1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt and black pepper to taste

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice until smooth.
Add the shredded rotisserie chicken to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the dressing.
