Ingredients

    1.5 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts, poached
    2 Lemon Wedges, juiced
    1/2 Medium Apple (Braeburn, Cameo, or whatever you like), chopped
    1/3 Cup Onion, chopped
    1/3 Cup Celery, diced
    1/3 Cup Carrot, grated
    1/3 Cup Craisins
    1/2 Cup (8 Tbsp) Light Mayonnaise
    4 tsp Yellow Mustard
    1 Tbsp Dill Weed, fresh or dried
    1/4 tsp Curry Powder
    Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions

Poach chicken in water, salting water lightly if desired.

While chicken is poaching, begin preparing the items for your salad. Chop the apples and place in medium bowl; squeeze one lemon wedge over them, stirring to coat. Add onion, celery, carrot, and craisins.

When chicken is cooked through, remove from pan and let cool until you're able to handle it. Chop the chicken into small-medium pieces (or chop in food processor). Add the chicken to the bowl, and begin adding Mayonnaise and Mustard until the desired consistency is reached. Add spices and juice from second lemon wedge, adjusting to your personal taste. Chill until cooled.

Goes well on a fluffy bread with lettuce, or with crackers for a nice snack. Makes around 10-12 1/3 Cup servings.
