Loaded amongst the wonderful Fall flavors of apples as well as pecans, a fight of sweetness from blood-red grapes, as well as the creaminess of Greek yogurt, this chicken salad packs a resounding season punch. Not to refer ...
I dearest that it's a fight to a greater extent than health-conscious than the typical mayonnaise-laden chicken salad ... as well as packs a footling extra poly peptide from the role of Greek yogurt.
The inspiration for this recipe came from 2 things ...
The root inspiration was our family's view final weekend to an apple tree orchard. It was footling Miss H.'s root fourth dimension at an orchard, as well as every bit expected, she loved it. We weren't able to selection our ain apples because of this year's smaller-than-usual apple tree crop inwards our expanse ... apparently, some jump storms damaged the blooms. But nosotros were able to accept a hay ride as well as selection our ain pumpkin, which Miss H. adored.
And spell nosotros couldn't selection our ain apples, nosotros were able to purchase some super-fresh, just-picked blood-red beauties from the orchard stand.
Which as well as then promptly ended upward inwards this perfect-for-Fall Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad amongst Apples & Pecans.
This salad's 2nd inspiration was the new Pepperidge Farm Harvest BlendsTM bread. Because shouldn't a sandwich made amongst a to a greater extent than health-conscious, whole-grain, harvest-inspired breadstuff receive got a to a greater extent than health-conscious, harvest-inspired filling?
Well yes. Yes, it should.
I was fortunate to larn to travail out all 3 varieties of the novel Harvest BlendsTM ... as well as I'm hooked. Being an only-whole-grain-bread family, Pepperidge Farm® Harvest BlendsTM will easily slide correct into our breadstuff line-up. While each diverseness is dissimilar inwards texture as well as flavor, they all receive got bully fresh-baked taste. And they're all squeamish as well as hearty as well as filling!
I peculiarly dearest the super soft texture of the Sprouted Grain, the crunchiness of the Seeded Grain, as well as the slight sweetness from molasses inwards the Ancient Grain.
So which did I couple amongst my Greek Yogurt Chicken Salad, you ask?
The Ancient Grain! The bread's subtle sweetness paired actually good amongst the salad's tang from the Greek yogurt as well as sweetness from the pecans as well as fruit. But truly, I mean value whatsoever of the 3 varieties would brand a fabulous sandwich.
