Ingredients

* 2 cups chopped cooked turkey meat
* 1 apple, peeled, cored, chopped*
* 1 teaspoon of lemon juice*
* 1/4 cup of raisins and/or dried cranberries
* 2 Tbsp chopped green onion or chives
* 2 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (can substitute parsley)
* 1 rib celery chopped

* 1/2 Tbsp yellow curry powder
* 1/4 cup yogurt
* 1/4 cup mayonnaise
* 1 Tbsp honey
* 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
* Salt and pepper

*Once you’ve chopped the apples, sprinkle with lemon juice to keep them from discoloring.

Method

1 In a small skillet, heat the curry powder on medium low heat until quite fragrant. Remove from heat. Do not linger too long over the heat or the curry powder will start to toast. The point of this step is to heat it enough to release more of its flavor. You can easily skip this step if you are in a hurry.

2 In a large bowl, mix the curry powder, yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, and ground ginger. Add salt and pepper to taste.

3 Gently fold in the chopped, cooked turkey, apple, raisins/dried cranberries, green onions, cilantro, and celery. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed.

Serve on a bed of lettuce greens or in a sandwich.

Serves 2. This recipe can easily be multiplied.
