Chicken Salad

Something for the warm afternoons....

1.5lb chicken breast
2 T salt
1/4 c grapes, halved
1/4 chopped pecans, toasted
1/4 c NF yogurt
1/4 light mayo or miracle whip
1.5t curry powder
1 T lime juice

Simmer chicken in water with salt for 15 min. Allow to cool, then dice fine or shred.

In large bowl, combine juice, yogurt, mayo and curry. Add chicken and mix well. Fold in grapes and pecans.

makes 4 large servings:

Cal: 242
Pro: 36
Carb:7
Fat:9.25

*Bread choice not included as there are too many options, but this goes very nice on whole wheat.

I am still playing with this a bit. I think it may be ok to drop the mayo and go with .5 c yogurt, but not sure yet.

My wife refuses to eat celery, and I refuse to eat onions, so I'm not sure how well that one would go over.

I picked up some imitation crab and lobster on sale this week, and am planning on taking a shot at this again today using it. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Celery expends more calories than it gives so that would be good on a cut. I prefer my own salad with salad leaves, cucumber and spinach.
