Cashew-Raisin Chicken Salad

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z3.5 (ZReboot 3.5) recipe. Yes, you can have raisins once you stabilize. Just not too many. Use as few as you feel you can get away with and still get the flavor sensation.

Servings: Serves 4

Ingredients:

• 1 whole rotisserie chicken from the deli (I get a plain one). Pull it apart and cut the meat into cubes. Toss the skin and the carcass. You’ll end up with about 4 cups of chicken.
• ½ cup of raisins (or less)
• 1 cup of cashews. I leave mine whole but you can use pieces to save on budget.
• 1 cup of mayo (approximate; depends on how creamy you like your chicken salad)
• Sea salt and pepper to taste. I use lots of pepper.
• ½ – 1 tsp of curry powder. This is to your taste, too.

Instructions:

Put all of the ingredients in a bowl and stir. I use plenty of pepper in mine and I always add a whisper of cayenne to dishes like this to give the flavor a little extra sparkle.

Serve on top of salad or toast one piece of a low-carb bread, butter it and serve open-face. Julian’s bakery makes a nice low-carb whole wheat. I don’t eat it often but when I do I feel spoiled.

Enjoy!

Cheers,
