Cashew Chicken Salad Sandwiches

These are really good and with 2 servings you get a lot!!!

Cashew Chicken Salad Sandwiches

This sandwich goes together as fast as an ordinary turkey sandwich but is much more interesting. Serve with sliced fresh fruit for a casual dinner for two.

Yield: 2 servings (serving size: 2/3 cup chicken salad and 1 bun)

1/4 cup fat-free sour cream
1 tablespoon light mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon curry powder (we start with 1/4 and add 'til we get the taste we want)
2 cups chopped roasted skinless, boneless chicken breasts (about 2 breasts)
1/3 cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons chopped dry-roasted cashews
1 tablespoon finely chopped green onions
2 (2-ounce) whole wheat hamburger buns
Combine first 3 ingredients in a large bowl, stirring until well blended. Add chicken, celery, cashews, and green onions; stir well. Serve chicken salad on buns.
