Fruity

Tweet

This summer we are really increasing our fruit intake. Probably will eat more raw vegetables as well. I am just busily anticipating tomorrow's lunch. I made a fruited chicken salad this evening so it could have a few hours to blend itself together. I cooked a whole chicken in the crock pot yesterday. I chilled it, then was able to remove the fat that had cooked out. With the shredded chicken we also have apples, green grapes, dried cranberries and mandarin oranges I peeled and sectioned. Drizzle lime juice on the apples to stop them from browning. I had cooked the chicken without salt, so I lightly dusted it with salt, added Miracle Whip because that is what Bob likes. I would have used mayonnaise for me. We will have that tomorrow for our lunch, and will likely have some crackers or bread of some kind with it. I have other things I want to make into main dish salads, and I am really looking forward to doing so as that is filling but cool for this hot weather.
