Instructions:
-
Prepare the Turkey: If you don’t have leftover turkey, you can quickly cook some chicken or use pre-cooked turkey. Shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces.
-
Mix the Vegetables: In a large bowl, add the chopped celery, red onion, and any other ingredients you’re using (cranberries, nuts, etc.).
-
Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise or Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
-
Combine: Add the turkey to the vegetables, then pour the dressing over the top. Stir everything together until well-coated.
-
Serve: You can serve this turkey salad on a bed of mixed greens, in a sandwich, or in a wrap!
