Fast Food: Going to my fridge and finding something already prepared
As I have mentioned before, I have a big family to feed. When I make a meal it's usually a production; not only because I'm feeding myself, my hubby and kideroos, but because I like to have leftovers in the fridge..aka fast food. I know that if there is something appetizing when I open those doors, I won't revert to eating a box of cookies (not that any of us have seen any store-bought boxes of cookies in recent times), but you get the point. Hubbs hits the fridge always looking for goods and my little man has a stomach that is a bottomless pit.
I was out running errands one day and lunch was neigh, my tummy was yelping and I didn't have any healthy snacks riding shotgun. I headed to our local coffee shop and lo and behold....Tarragon Chicken Salad Sandwich! Of course, as I ate, I analyzed. Here's my version.
Tarragon Chicken Salad
2-3 cups boneless chicken, broken into bite size pieces
(you could probably used canned, but
I haven't tried it.
2 tsp. fresh or dried tarragon (add more or less to taste)
1 Tbls. dijon mustard
1/2 cup mayo (add more or less to taste)
2 stalks of diced celery
1 scallion
1/4 cup dried cranberries
*Mix it up
Serve on a bed of fresh greens or in a sandwich with fresh greens. As a sandwich, I prefer honey wheat bread and my little man prefers a wrap. Hubby and the girls just eat it how I serve it.
