One of Cooking Light's Superfast recipes. Great for a lighter dinner or packed lunch. Ingredients:
1/4 cup slivered almonds (about 1 ounce) |
1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt |
3 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon bottled ground fresh ginger (such as spice world, the stuff in the jar that you keep in the fridge, not ground ginger) |
1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
3/4 cup thinly sliced celery |
1/4 cup chopped red onion |
1/4 cup dried cherries |
1/4 cup golden raisin |
8 ounces roast cooked turkey breast, chopped |
4 whole wheat pita bread, cut in half (6 inch) |
Directions:
1. Heat a small nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add almonds, cook 2 minutes or until toasted, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; set aside.
2. Combine yogurt, mayonnaise, ginger and crushed red pepper in a medium bowl. Add almonds, celery and next four ingredients (through turkey), stirring well to combine. Spoon 1/3 cup turkey mixture into each pita half.
