Splash of Summer Creamy Chicken Salad with Blueberries

January 12, 2015

We have had a stretch of long hot days. Preparing dinner can be a challenge when you do not want to heat up your house anymore than necessary. I created this salad a few days ago and it was delicious. If you are not a curry fan, just use another seasoning like tarragon or basil on your chicken as you sauté it and follow the rest of the recipe as is. I love curry and it is so good for you (full of Tumeric) so give this salad a try. It is healthy and light and a wonderful summer salad.

½ cup thinly sliced red onion
1/3 cup diced celery
¼ cup torn fresh basil
4 cups washed and torn spinach leaves
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup fresh small tomatoes
½ cup diced cucumber
1 avocado diced
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic smashed
2 chicken breasts
1-2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper

½ cup plain greek yogurt
1-2 Tablespoon honey
1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Wash and cut up all vegetables and blueberries and place into a salad bowl. Heat oil in small pan and add garlic, curry powder, salt and pepper and stir until garlic is soft. Cut chicken breasts in half...
