Recipe - Coconut Curry Chicken Salad


The reason I made this is because i get chicken salad at least once per week at work. Why am i paying for it? And why am I eating those unnecessary calories in the full fat mayo? Since i love it so much, i figured to make a batch to have a few sandwhiches during the week.

ANNNND, I really have to pat myself on the back for this one...cause it's pretty much the shit! oh oh oh so tasty. I love curry. I try to curry anything up that i can. and i figure i make coconut curry sauces, why not just throw real coconut into the mix... I had all this stuff on hand in the pantry and didn't have to make a special trip. I forget why i had the coconut... was for some other recipe i bought it for a while back. anywhoo.. here goes... if i would do anything, it would be adding peppitas or onion for crunch. that's the only thing i thought it was missing.

Cubed cooked chicken breast (I usually bake a lb or so and use it in different meals throughout the week.)
1-2 tblsp curry powder
shredded coconut
golden raisins
chopped cilantro
Light Mayo - not much. just enough to bind it.
