- 2 Celery Stalks, diced
- 2 Green Onions, sliced
- 1/2 cup Blackberries, sliced in half or quarters depending on size
- 1/2 tsp Salt and Pepper
- 1/4 cup Chopped Walnuts

Instructions
- Cook the Chicken: Prepare the chicken breasts using your preferred method such as baking, boiling, or grilling. Ensure they are cooked through, then shred and chop into bite-sized pieces. Allow them to cool.
- Prepare the Vegetables: Finely dice the celery stalks and slice the green onions to add crunch and freshness to the salad.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced celery, sliced green onions, halved or quartered blackberries, and chopped walnuts.
- Add the Dressing: Stir in the cottage cheese and mayonnaise until all ingredients are evenly coated and well mixed.
- Season: Add salt and pepper to taste, mixing gently to incorporate the seasoning without crushing the berries.
- Serve: Enjoy the salad as is or serve it on your favorite keto bread for a delicious low-carb sandwich option.
Notes
- You can cook the chicken however you prefer: baking, boiling, or grilling all work well.
- Adjust the amount of mayonnaise based on your creaminess preference or dietary needs.
- For extra crunch, toast the walnuts before adding them to the salad.
- If blackberries are not in season, you can substitute with fresh raspberries or blueberries.
- Use keto bread to keep the meal low carb; otherwise, serve the salad wrapped in lettuce leaves for a gluten-free alternative.
