Last fall we were invited to dinner by another family on our team from the UK. She made this delicious chicken salad, that I have “tweaked” a little to make even tastier.
Cilantro Chicken Salad
5 – 6 chicken breast
3 sprigs of chopped green onion
2 stalks of celery (blanched)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 cup fried bacon pieces
Dressing:
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup sour cream
salt/pepper to taste
Poach chicken breasts. Cool and cut into small cubes. Mix with vegetables and bacon. Toss with dressing and chill for several hours. Service with large romaine lettuce leaves or over steamed rice.
You are always whipping up some good, delicious meals for your family! By the way, our church gets "leftover" Great Harvest and sometimes Trader Joe breads and they have a "bread ministry" where families can receive a loaf or 2 each Sunday, depending on what’s available, and sometimes even goodies like cookies. We’ve really been enjoying some great, healthy breads recently and it always makes me think of you.
