BABY SHOWER CURRY CHICKEN SALAD
Photo credit: My BFF Kim @ blubelstudio.com
Spring is HERE and that means outdoor party planning, picnics, bridal showers, luncheons and baby showers are being planned.
It is a good idea to have a few go-to recipes that will not disappoint and that are easily prepared in advance. We all know the "day of" is filled with enough last-minute challenges as is.
Although there are quite a few "curry haters" out there, this is a chicken salad even they will love and picky children will not {hopefully!} complain.
Happy Planning!
Curry Chicken Salad
Lisa Pearson
Ingredients:
6 cups cooked chicken, chopped
2 8oz. cans water chestnuts, drained and chopped
1 ¼ cups Best Foods Mayonnaise
1 tsp. sea salt
2 tsp. curry or to taste
Directions:
*Mix all ingredients together except water chestnuts.
*May be refrigerated overnight.
*Add water chestnuts before serving.
*Note: If I am boiling chicken breasts, I figure on one chicken breast per cup.
*You may want to add a bit more mayo before serving if needed.
Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteThank you all! This is just a basic recipe, so you may add in other things if you like. Sometimes I add a few more water chestnuts for extra crunch. Our family likes this BEST served in Pitas!
