Greek-Style Chicken Salad on a Bed of Parsley Cucumber Salad with Whole-Wheat Pita Chips

Hmmmmmmmmmmm, I just happen to have 4 baked chicken legs that I will turn into this. And, my parsley is still going strong out on my balcony farm.
(serves 1)

Pita Chips:
1&1/2 (6") whole wheat pitas, cut into 11 wedges
Cooking spray (I use coconut oil c.s.*)
1/4 t. ground cumin
1/4 t. smoked* paprika
1/4 t. dried oregano

Chicken Salad:
1/4 cup chopped red onion
2 T. mayonnaise
2 T. plain 2% reduced-fat Greek yogurt
2 t. freshly* squeezed lemon juice
1/4 freshly* ground pepper
4 oz. chopped skinless boneless rotisserie chicken (about 1 cup)

Parsley Salad:
3/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/3 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup chopped English cucumber
2 T. chopped red onion
2 t. freshly* squeezed lemon juice
2 t. EVOO

For you:
Preheat oven to 400. To prepare pita chips: Arrange pita wedges on a baking sheet; coat with cooking spray. Combine cumin, paprika, and oregano in a small bowl.; sprinkle over pita wedges. Bake for 10 min. or until toasted. Reserve 5 chips.
To prepare chicken salad: Combine red onion and the next 5 ingredients (through chicken) in a med. bowl.
To prepare parsley salad: Combine parsley and remaining ingredients in a med. bowl; top with 1/2 cup chicken salad and remaining pita chips.

For the kids:
Serve reserved 5 pita chips with remaining 1/2 cup chicken salad and Eng. cucumber slices, if desired.
