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 reduced-sodium soy sauce
6 lettuce leaves
1/4 seedless cucumber, sliced

Coarsely chop chicken and add to bowl with beans. Add carrots, ginger,
coconut, peanut butter, yogurt, juice, and soy sauce. Stir until
