– 1 cup diced cucumber
– 1/4 cup chopped red onion

3. Add the Greek yogurt and lemon juice to the mashed avocado. Mix well until creamy.
4. Sprinkle in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine the flavors.
5. Fold the shredded chicken into the avocado mixture gently, ensuring that it’s evenly coated.

7. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt and pepper as desired.
