Final answer:

The Carolina Chicken Salad typically includes shredded chicken, mayonnaise, celery, onion, grapes, nuts, and hard-boiled eggs, with seasonings like dill and mustard. A healthier version might substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt and include tomatoes, cucumbers, and feta cheese.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Carolina Chicken Salad does not have a single standardized recipe, but it often includes ingredients typical of a Southern U.S. style chicken salad. Though the student's question references ingredients in the context of North Carolina with a dish featuring pulled pork and red coleslaw, the provided reference to dinner suggests a different set of ingredients, more in line with a Greek-inspired meal.

However, if we consider a typical Carolina style, a Chicken Salad might include shredded chicken, mayonnaise, celery, onion, and sometimes ingredients like grapes, nuts (pecans or almonds), and hard-boiled eggs. A dressing for this type of salad often includes seasonings such as dill, mustard, salt, and pepper. For a healthier version akin to the reference dinner, one might use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise, and possibly mix in tomatoes, cucumbers, and feta cheese as suggested.
