Cooking is fun. Eating is funner. I cook, photograph and write these recipes. Everything I post on this blog I make from scratch using fresh wholesome ingredients.. I've been cooking since I was a little kid. My recipes are based on trial and error, along with studying cookbooks, family recipes, blogs and cooking shows. Some of the veggies and herbs I use are grown in my garden. Yay sustainability! I'm working on making my yard into an edible landscape. It's really fun to go out in the garden and pick your veggies for dinner!

Curried Chicken Salad

This dish came out completely delicious! My husband took a bite and said “oohmaGod, That’s got to be the best sandwich ever..”  Then he took another bite and said, “You got mad skills baby”  :D  

I saw a segment on a show this a.m. which said that a good way to save money for Christmas shopping is to “shop your pantry”, instead of going to the store. Being a food blogger, I’m always at the grocery store $pending way too much. So, I decided to use what I have in the fridge for today’s lunch post.

I made a whole roast chicken the other night, and I had all sorts of fresh veggies in the crisper drawer. So I came up with this curried chicken salad recipe. I really like that it’s low cal, & full of veggies!

In a mixing bowl, combine:

1/2 cup organic, plain yogurt

2 tblsp organic mayo

1/4 to 1/2 tsp curry powder

1 small shallot, chopped

juice of 1/2 fresh lemon or lime

1 tablespoon honey

a pinch of dry parsley, or, better yet, some fresh chopped parsley (I only had dry)

salt and pepper

1/2 cup raisins

Chop 2 persian cucumbers, 2 stalks celery, & leftover chicken into cubes

Grate one large carrot

Toss all the cubes ingredients into the dressing and serve on toast with mixed greens.

p.s.  yum!
