Microwave on High until tender, about 10 minutes. Uncover, being careful of the steam; drain and let cool, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk honey, vinegar, yogurt, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper and cinnamon in a large bowl until smooth. Add the rutabaga, chicken, apple, celery, grapes and almonds to the dressing; toss to coat. Serve on lettuce. To make ahead: Refrigerate dressing (Step 2) for up to 2 days. Tips: Rutabaga is often coated in wax to preserve freshness. For easier peeling, use a paring knife instead of a vegetable peeler. Despite its appearance, creamed honey features just one ingredient—honey. The sweetener gets run through a low-temperature process designed to control crystallization and keep it soft and spreadable. Look for it with other honeys at your grocery store or online.
