You probably think you’re at the wrong blog.  Why is an ice cream blog talking about chicken salad?  How can that possibly relate to ice cream?  Well, read on and I’ll tell you!

First, I just have to say that Blue Bunny ice cream is delicious and versatile.  Their website has so many good recipes with instructional videos on it.  Their recipe for Chicken Curry Salad is no exception.  I wouldn’t have thought to use vanilla ice cream in my chicken salad, but this sounds so good:

“This spicy and sweet chicken salad starts with a creamy base of softened BLUE BUNNY® French Vanilla Ice Cream, mayonnaise and curry powder surrounding tender cubes of chicken breast, raisins and diced apples.”
I’m beginning to have doubts about writing this entry before lunch and without any Blue Bunny ice cream in sight…

INGREDIENTS:
4 oz. BLUE BUNNY® French Vanilla Ice Cream, softened
1 tbsp. mayonnaise
1/2 tbsp. curry powder
8 oz. cooked chicken breast
2 oz. raisins
2 oz. diced apples

PREPARATION:
Mix the ice cream and mayonnaise with the curry powder. Fold in the chicken, raisins, and apples. Use in a sandwich wrap with sliced tomatoes, lettuce or other toppings as desired, or serve as a salad.
