Healthy Waldorf Salad
I got this from the Turbo Jam Turbo Results Guidebook.... it's one of the lunch recipes. It's absolutely amazing! My husband even enjoys it
Note: This recipe yields enough for 3 meals, so the nutritional info is based on 1/3 of the amounts specified in the ingredients, or one serving only. It's great to have in the fridge and take on the go -- I love to eat it over baby spinach salad personally, for an added extra healthy benefit
Ingredients:
1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1 tablespoon orange juice or lemon juice (I sometimes omit this, I don't notice a real difference)
1 stalk celery, cut into small pieces (optional)
1 pound lean boneless, skinless chicken breast, broiled and sliced
1 tart green apple, peeled cored and cut into small pieces (I go for Golden Delicious myself)
1/2 cup seedless grapes, halved
1/4 cup dried cranberries or golden raisins (I typically grab the mini boxes of Sunmaid)
1/4 cup toasted raw almonds, slightly chopped
Instructions:
Bring 2 inches of water to a boil in a skillet, add chicken breast, reduce heat and let simmer 8 to 10 minutes. Do not let water boil or chicken will be tough. Cool and cut into 1-inch chunks. Combine with apple, celery, dried cranberries or raisins, and almond pieces.
In a small bowl, stir yogurt and orange juice/lemon juice together. Pour over chicken mixture and toss well to coat. Chill for at least one hour.
Optional:
serve over romaine lettuce (I prefer baby spinach lettuce!)

I'm making some for dinner tonight in place of pizza (which everyone else is having) for our poker night so I'll try to take a picture
