Instructions
Adjust rack to middle position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Cut each pita into eight triangles. Toss pita triangles on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, half the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. (You’ll use the rest of the garlic powder in Step 3.) Bake on middle rack until lightly browned and slightly toasted, 6-10 minutes. TIP: Pita chips will crisp up as they cool.
Meanwhile, trim, peel, and cut carrots into sticks (like fries; ours were 3 inches long and ⅓ inch thick). Halve, core, and thinly slice apple. In a small bowl, combine dried cranberries and dried apricots. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Dice into bite-size pieces.
In a medium bowl, combine chicken, mayonnaise, yogurt, remaining garlic powder, salt, and pepper. TIP: Try customizing your chicken salad by dicing some of the apple to mix in or adding some dried fruit mix (or both!).
To serve: Divide chicken salad, carrots, apple slices, and dried fruit mix between plates. Serve pita chips on the side. To stash: Refrigerate chicken salad, carrots, apple slices, dried fruit mix, and pita chips in airtight containers and pack as desired!
