    Chicken Carrot Salad Sandwiches

    1/4 pound French green beans,
    ...or fresh thin green beans, trimmed
    10 ounces cooked sliced boneless chicken breast
    4 medium carrots, coarsely grated
    1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
    3 tablespoons sweetened flaked coconut, lightly toasted
    2 tablespoons reduced-fat natural-style peanut butter
    2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt
    1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
    1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
    6 lettuce leaves
    1/4 seedless cucumber, sliced
    12 slices whole-grain bread, toasted

    Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil; add salt. Add beans and cook
    until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under
    cold water, tossing, until cool. Pat beans dry and cut crosswise into
    1/4-inch pieces. Transfer to a large bowl.

    Coarsely chop chicken and add to bowl with beans. Add carrots, ginger,
    coconut, peanut butter, yogurt, juice, and soy sauce. Stir until
    combined well; salt and pepper to taste.

    Arrange chicken salad, lettuce, and cucumber between bread slices.
    Makes 6 servings.
