What I'm Reading This Week #13
Friday is finally here! Can I get a woot woot?! (Cheers to those who actually did it.) The week felt long to start but then before we knew it...blam! Friday. We had the countertop dude out to measure and template Tuesday. The lady who made the appointment said it would be 2-3 weeks after so I'm hoping for sooner than later so I can FINALLY reveal the bathroom to you guys! Kind of stinks though because we were told they would take the sink/faucet with them and that was a big fat no. We were looking forward to getting that big azz box out of the house. Soon enough I guess. You may have noticed a little zhuzh to the site (probably more for those on laptops) but I figured it was time and I think they retired my previous theme anyway. So it's a little minimalistic but there wasn't a ton to choose from on the free side so I took what I could get. Enjoy. 😄 I sat down and did a spreadsheet of my seeds, when they were...
Those do look yummy. I'll have to give them a try sometime. You little gem you!
ReplyDeleteMmmm. These look so good! I love fruit in chicken salad. There's just something awesome about the mix of texture and flavor. I also love that you suggested alternative options like the use of avocados or hummus for the binder. I would have never thought of that! Thanks for the easy, adaptable, delicious looking recipe! :)
ReplyDeleteI like to add a little horseradish to my chicken salad. Not the mayonnaise blend, the real stuff. Raisins work well instead of apple if you're not eating it right away so the apples don't get brown & icky. This is one of my favorites to take for work, but I usually use pita or sandwich thins because lettuce cups at work are just not really workable.
ReplyDeleteYes please! Looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteThose look DELICIOUS! Thanks for the recipe! Definitely going to give it a whirl!
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious. I made homemade chicken salad too, using low fat Mayo. I put a 3-lb. package of frozen chicken breasts in my crockpot with a can of low sodium chicken broth and cook them all day. I shred a few breasts for the chicken salad, and have several other breasts left to make pizza or a myriad other things! They are so tender cooked like that.When I mix up my chicken salad, I always add chopped celery and some chopped pickles too. It is great with lettuce leaves or even served on top of shredded lettuce (which I buy for tacos). A few sliced grapes on top are always good too. And sometimes some sliced almonds. Or a few dried cranberries. I LOVE chicken salad--can you tell??? Who needs bread????
ReplyDeleteThat looks tasty! I've never made a chicken salad before, and avoid them when I'm out because of the fat/caloire in the mayo.
ReplyDeleteAlso a good idea keeping the lettuce in some tin foil to keep it crunchy!
