Plan ahead…needs to chill.

Swap your usual chicken salad recipe for this spicy-sweet version flavored with fresh fruit, curry powder, and a hint of honey. Serve on a baguette or with whole-grain crackers for a refreshing–and fast–meal.

Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups chopped cooked chicken breast (about 8 ounces)
1/2 cup halved seedless red grapes
1/2 cup diced peeled apple
2 tablespoons diced pineapple
1 tablespoon dried currants
3 tablespoons low-fat mayonnaise
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon sliced almonds, toasted

Preparation:
Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Combine mayonnaise and next 5 ingredients (through pepper), stirring with a whisk. Pour mayonnaise mixture over chicken mixture; toss gently to coat. Sprinkle with almonds. Cover and chill.
