Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup raisins or 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/3 cup apple juice
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onions (or both!) or 1/3 cup diced celery (or both!)
  • 1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted
  • salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)

Directions:

  1. Combine dried fruit and apple juice in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl. Bring to a simmer and stir. Refrigerate 15 minutes.
  2. Mix mayonnaise and mustard in a medium bowl. Add chicken (or turkey), green onions (or celery) and toasted almonds. Mix well. Stir cooled fruit into chicken mixture. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill if desired, or serve immediately.
  3. Serve over salad greens as a main dish salad, or in pita pockets or on multi-grain bread as a sandwich filling.
  4. Cook time is recommended chill time!
  5. NOTE: 1 1/2 pounds chicken breasts = 2 cups cooked, cubed chicken, or a 3 pound whole chicken yields about 4 1/2 cups cooked/diced.
