Chicken Salad With Blueberries

 



Yesterday we invited a dear friend from our old neighborhood for lunch. He is a retired teacher and artist and so in addition to good food, I wanted to present a pretty plate for him. 

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (I think white meat is best in this recipe)
  • 1/2 cup celery, diced
  • 1/2 cup dried blueberries
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced
  • 2 tablespoons minced red onion
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise, (I used non-fat)
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Cover and chill for at least one hour to allow flavors to blend.
Garnish
  • bed of shredded napa cabbage (tender tops and center leaves)
  • red romaine leaf(s)
  • crumbled blue cheese
  • crushed smoked almonds
  • fresh blueberries
  • fresh avocado slices
  • fresh dill weed
  • fresh edible flowers (I used johnny jump-ups from my garden)
