Thursday- Curry Chicken Salad Wrap

Chef’s Notes: I don’t know really when it happened, but something has happened to me. I look at a recipe, consider what I have at my disposal and change the recipe accordingly. Scary thing, the food turns out really pretty good! You know what “they” said; practice makes perfect. I like to think that hard work pays off.

Plan of Attack:
1. Combine in one bowl!
Ingredients for 2-3:
Salad-
8 oz shredded chicken (about 1 C)
½ C plain greek yogurt
Handful fresh cilantro, chopped
¼ C raisins
½ Tbsp mayo
1 ½ Tbsp lime juice
1 banana pepper, chopped
1 ½ Tbsp curry powder
Salt to taste

Extras-
2 Tandoori Naan whole wheat flatbreads
Sliced red onion
Sliced cucumber (see below where it was acquired)
Spinach
2 Tbsp mango chutney

Instructions:
  1. Combine chicken, yogurt, cilantro, raisins, mayo, lime juice, banana pepper, curry powder and salt in a bowl
  2. Warm Naan bread
  3. Spread 1 Tbsp of the mango chutney on one of the flatbreads, top with spinach, red onion, cucumber & ½ of the curry chicken salad mixture. Repeat for other flatbread.
  4. Enjoy!

GARDEN UPDATE: I thought we'd visually update you on the status of our labor of love.



Just a reminder how big the cucumber plant was when it was just a baby.

Yes, that is the same cucumber plant that supplied the cucumber for tonight's meal!
