The title is pretty self-explanatory, and I think you'll agree that this is a nice way to spend a summer evening. Kettle (crunchy) potato chips on the side, a couple of home-made cookies or a brownie, some carrot sticks, and you've got a pretty decent brown-bag lunch, too. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups cubed cooked turkey (or chicken) |
1/4 cup thinly sliced celery |
2 tablespoons chopped dried apricots |
2 tablespoons chopped unsalted cashews |
1 green onion, sliced |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons plain yogurt (or sour cream) |
salt & pepper |
4 lettuce leaves |
8 slices artisan bread |
Directions:
1. Combine Bowl 1 ingredients.
2. Combine Bowl 2 ingredients; add to Bowl 1, stir to coat.
3. Place a lettuce on four of the bread slices; top that with 1/2 cup of salad mixture; finish each with a remaining slice of bread.
4. As simple as that!
5. How about switching out the cashews for walnuts or pecans? Raisins or grapes (cut in half) for the apricots. Mmm-good!
