CEiMB: Curried Chicken Salad

This week's recipe, curried chicken salad, for CEiMB was chosen by Sarah.  I was excited to try the recipe for a bunch of reasons.  We have been rediscovering curry in my house lately.  I am not a mayo fan so the idea of using non-fat yogurt instead was appealing.  I have always loved chicken salad!  Yum!


This was a big hit in the house.  We had it for lunch after we each had a hard training ride.  I was surprised too because my husband likes classic flavors.  I was concerned that the curry and the almonds was going to tank this recipe.  Shockingly, he loved it!  I really liked the crunch of the almonds and scallions.  I think the grapes would have added too much sweetness which it why I swapped them out for almonds.  Give it a shot!  Enjoy!

  2. This look wonderful!! I think for man pleasing, the almonds and scallions are a good idea. I love grapes with chicken salad, maybe on the side for my sweet tooth.
