  • Avocado Salsa 2
    Prep Time: 10 minutes | Serves: 2-4

    Well, I should actually call this wannabe guacamole since it's the exact same ingredients just with less ripe avocados. If you make this exactly as laid out below, it will burn... well, I guess that depends on how potent your onions are!

    Ingredients

    • 1.5 Avocados (because that's what I had. Just use 2 for this recipe), diced (or mashed)
    • 1/2 medium Red Onion, diced
    • 1/4 jalapeno, diced finely
    • 1/3 bunch cilantro, stems removed, chopped finely
    • Juice of 1/2 lemon
    • Handful cherry tomatoes (I used the organic sugar plum tomatoes from TJ's)
    • Dash of salt

    Directions

  • Curried Chicken Salad Sandwich
    Prep Time: 20 minutes + Soak time | Serves: 12+

    It was a hit this weekend when I make my usual Chicken Curry Salad with a bit more jazz as a sandwich for my friend's Bridal Shower Brunch. This recipe will make 12+ sandwiches but will top 6-8 salads. I used an organic multigrain bread, but feel free to use your favorite. Scoop over your favorite greens - I used arugula in the pictures below - for a fresh summer salad!

    You can use more vinegar and omit the lemon juice in the sauce if you wish the sauce to taste more mayo-y. Add the water or broth in increments to avoid the sauce becoming too watery. Depending on the softness of the cashews, you may need more or less liquid. Also, if you want a more traditional chicken salad, just omit the curry!

    It's the perfect recipe to throw together with that left over chicken. Chop up a red bell pepper, cucumber and any other crunchy fruit, veggie, nuts, etc for your favorite combo!
