Turkey Curry Grape Salad

This makes enough for a large crowd, and can be scaled down!

Ingredients:
  • 8 cups (2 liter) cooked turkey, or boneless chicken breast (pan fried until golden)
  • 1½ cups (360 ml) water chestnuts sliced
  • 2 lbs seedless green grapes
  • 2 cups (½ liter) chopped celery
  • 2 cups (½ liter) sliced almonds
  • 3 cups (almost ¾ liter) mayonnaise
  • 2-3 tablespoons curry powder
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 large can of pineapple chunks drained [1 lb. 13 oz., 800 gr drained]
Instructions:

  • Dice the turkey or chicken
  • Place turkey or chicken, chestnuts, grapes, pineapple, and celery in a large bowl
  • In another bowl mix the mayo, curry, soy sauce, and the lemon juice together, then mix with the turkey and fruit
  • Arrange the salad on lettuce leaves on a large platter
  • Toast the almonds (or pan fry them in some butter - this is faster than toasting)
  • Sprinkle the toasted almonds on top just before serving (or mix in with the salad)
  • This recipe can be made a day ahead (but don't add the almonds until ready to serve)
