The key to this recipe is the sesame oil which gives it a smokey, mellow flavor. This is a much healthier alternative to mayonnaise based chicken salad sandwiches. Ingredients:
1 cup plain yogurt |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
2 -3 drops sesame oil |
2 teaspoons fat free asian-style dressing |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked |
10 grapes, halved |
1 green onion |
10 raw cashews |
1 stalk celery |
1 teaspoon sesame seeds |
1 cup baby spinach leaves |
12 slices whole grain bread |
Directions:
1. Mix together yogurt, garlic powder, sesame oil, salt, pepper, asian dressing (there is a recipe here on that is awesome), and set aside.
2. Chop the onion and celery into small pieces.
3. Using a slapper food chopper, chop the cashews.
4. Chop the chicken into small pieces.
5. Mix the yogurt mixture in with the grapes, chicken, cashews, onion, and celery.
6. Serve on a good, nutty bread (I like the ABM Seed Bread found here on ) with spinach leaves. Sprinkle a few sesame seeds on top and serve.
