Curried Chicken
Before I had my daughter I used to work in downtown Jacksonville, Riverside to be exact. Probably the thing I miss most about that job was the great restaurants near by. One restaurant in particular, called Judson’s, served the most amazing curried chicken salad sandwich I have ever eaten!
Oh how I miss those sandwiches, so much so that I have tried many times to recreate it and usually without much success. This past week however I finally was able to create a recipe that came pretty close and as you can imagine I was super excited! If you love chicken salad and curry, then I highly recommend giving this recipe a try – it’s fresh, sweet and super delicious. Whether on a croissant, over lettuce or in a wrap I hope you’ll enjoy.

    I don’t usually like chicken salad but curry chicken salad is the one type I do like, especially if it is made with Greek yogurt and no mayo : )

    I would love for you to share this at Mealtime Monday!

    This sounds fantastic! I have only tried chicken salad a few times, way back when I worked at Tim Hortons, but I loved it. I need to try it again sometime!

    This is a silly question, but is the egg raw or hard boiled? Thanks!

    This looks and sounds delicious, however I am on a low sugar no carb diet and being very successful so how many calories would a couple of spoonfuls of this be, any idea.
