Chick cash avo

Cashew Avocado Chicken Salad with Sweet Potato Fries

Ingredients

  • 4 cooked, boneless chicken breast halves, shredded
  • Avacado mayo**
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1 avocado – peeled, pitted and diced
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions

In a large bowl, mix the cooked chicken, avocado mayo, dill, cashews, and avocado. Season with salt and pepper. Cover, and chill in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes.

**Avocado Mayo

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 c avocado oil (find at whole foods)
  • 1 egg yolk (if you use local, pasture raised chicken eggs, you don’t have to worry about bacteria)
  • 1 t Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 t vinegar

Directions:

Put the egg yolk, mustard and vinegar in the smallest bowl of your food processor. Start the blade running and slowly add the avocado oil. Slowly means–take spoonful of oil and add a single drop into the bowl of the food processor. Once that has combined, add another drop. You should start to see an emulsion forming. At this point, you can add the oil as a slow drizzle. Continue until all the oil is gone. The mayo is finished when it’s creamy and a little thick. All in all, it’ll take about 6 minutes.

Sweet Potatoes Fries (for your side dish)

  • 1 sweet potato
  • 1 egg white
  • any spices of your choice whether that be cinnamon, paprika, garlic salt, etc.
