This is a great sandwich filling that they make at the diner in the hospital where I work, but I fancied it up a bit with some green onions and pecans. A great way to use up leftover chicken. Delicious!

I was searching for recipes using dried blueberries, and I found this one on the website of Michigan Blueberry Growers Association. Prep time does not include chill time, but I think it is best after chilling for a couple of hours. Blueberries are full of antioxidants---eat up!

I found this recipe in a TOH bonus book and it sounds great. I am always looking for ways to add extra fruit or veggies to or meals. It sounds like a nice cool summer meal that I can't wait to try in a pita or croissant. I think this would be a great appetizer on endive leaves.
