Lunch-time in the summer! |
Chicken & Gorgonzola
Stuffed Tomato
A refreshing summer dish combining the saltiness of Gorgonzola with the sweetness of grapes.
Ingredients
2 Large chicken breast ( baked and chopped)
1/2 Cup of crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1/3 Cup walnuts roughly chopped
20 -24 red grapes halved
1/2 low fat mayo
2 -TBL fresh chopped basil ( or parsley would work)
1 - TBL Milk
Salt & Pepper optional
1 Medium tomato
Romaine lettuce
Directions
Prepare chicken salad mixture by combining everything but the lettuce and tomato. Mix well. Chop enough romaine lettuce to cover bottom of your bowl. (For a little more flavor I lightly sprinkled the romaine with some raspberry vinaigrette dressing.) Next slice tomato into sections and place on top of bed of lettuce. When cutting the tomato be careful to not cut all the way through the tomato, it will then create a nice "bowl" for you.
Add the chicken salad to the center of the tomato and ENJOY!
When I made the chicken salad recipe I doubled it and used the leftovers for a fruity chicken and Gorgonzola salad. Again, a very nice refreshing flavor and a great way to use summer produce and leftovers. Find this recipe on the blog.
