Hummus Chicken Salad

Mmmm….lunch was so good today! I had to stay after class to work on a group project, so by the time I got back to my apartment (3PM ish), I was craving a big, fresh, filling sandwich! I fantasized about what I wanted to eat while biking home, and put this together when I finally made it to the kitchen:

Hummus Chicken Salad!

In my chicken salad:

  • TJ’s premium white chunck chicken (1/3-1/2 cup?)
  • Hummus (big, heaping spoonful)
  • Raw zucchini (about 4 thin slices, diced)
  • A tiny squirt of Dijon mustard
  • Paprika

Baby spinach and tomatoes on one half, and my chicken salad on the other. Really fresh tomatoes make all sandwiches 1000xs better, in my opinion. I’ve been boycotting winter tomatoes because they are such terrible quality, but these Campari tomatoes areĀ reminiscentĀ of summer tomatoes!

oh yes!

oh yes!

Yesterday, after my first incorporation of raspberries in oatmeal, which was long overdue, Sarah suggested that I should do a series on raspberries in foods where you least expect them. I LOVE this idea, and I am currently brainstorming….creative raspberry recipes coming soon :)
