RECIPES : Leftover Roast Chicken/Turkey Ideas
Once you cook a roast chicken, or have your Christmas turkey, you can only eat so many sandwiches with the leftovers! Here are a few healthy options to use up these excellent low-fat, high-protein, high-iron meats.
Use white and dark meat. Cube/shred leftover meat & try these five salad variations:
1. Toss with toasted, unsalted cashews, sliced fresh mango and baby salad leaves. Dress with a light vinaigrette.
2. Mix with cubed avocado, thinly sliced yellow and red pepper, canned sweetcorn or baby corn and halved cherry tomatoes. Dress with olive oil blended with lime juice and chilli.
3. Cook thin rice noodles and cool. Stir through shredded breast meat, shredded lettuce and spring onions (scallions), matchstick slices of carrot and cucumber, and dress with a well-blended mixture of 2 parts light soy sauce to 1 part sweet chilli sauce.
4. Cook and cool cous-cous. Stir through chunks of meat, diced red pepper, canned chickpeas (drained and rinsed), cubes of feta cheese and a few stoned black olives. Dress with a lemony vinaigrette.
5. Mix curry paste into low calorie mayonnaise and use to dress cubed chicken/turkey. Serve on a bed of spinach leaves, with a rice salad.
