Recipe and Quote of the Day!

Staying on the lunch idea recipes here's another recipe you can whip up and take with you on the go.

Curried Chicken Salad Wraps


Ingredients (makes 3 servings):

- 1 whole cooked chicken – meat removed from the bone and shredded/chopped
- 3 celery stalks – chopped
- ¼ onion – chopped
- ½ red pepper – chopped (you could use a fruit here instead…pineapple or apple would work well)
- 1 + ½ or 2 avocados – very ripe
- 2 Tbsp curry powder
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- Juice of ½ a lemon
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Romaine leaves for the wraps (optional)

Directions:

1. In a large bowl, combine chicken and veggies.
2. In a small bowl, mash the avocado with the spices and lemon juice – mash/mix well to create a creamy texture
3. Mix together the mashed avocado curry mixture with the chicken and veggies. Mix thoroughly.
4. Add salt and pepper to taste
5. Serve in lettuce wraps or on a bed of greens. When I served mine on a salad I used extra lemon juice to liquefy it a bit more.
6. Enjoy!
