Hoping everyone had a wonderful long weekend. We did . My son grilled Chicken one day. I made a roast in the crock- pot the next day and Yesterday was the best. I made Blueberry pancakes for breakfast. And mom can eat pancakes . They mash up good and she loves them, She also does good with very tender roast , potatoes and carrots. So when we make something for us that mom can eat it is a good day. I am a whiz at mashing things with a fork these days.
But the best was the Chicken Salad my son made yesterday. He got the idea from Subway . They have a new chicken salad sandwich with dried fruit of some kind in it and apples. He went and got one . I thought it was ok but he really loved it. So he found a recipe online . It calls for 4 cups chopped chicken , 3 cups chopped apples , 3/4 cup mayo. Than dried cranberries, raisins and chopped celery to taste. It is amazing. I can't stop eating it. I made a sandwich for lunch and I keep going back to get more for snacking with crackers off and on all day. It is the most healthy thing I have ate in months. Can't remember the last time I ate an apple.

We had grilled chicken yesterday too.
ReplyDeleteThe sandwich sounds good but that is a lot of mayonnaise!!
Glad your mom can still enjoy some foods.
So good to hear you've had some good days and good food.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE a good chicken salad! The one I have calls for water chestnuts, almonds and mandarin oranges (in a can)...... Your son's recipe sounds good.... I'll have to try that one.
Hugs,
