CRAIG CLAIBORNE'S CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH
Originally printed in 1981, here is Craig Claiborne's take on the classic chicken salad sandwich. In his version, a combination of mayonnaise (preferably homemade) and yogurt is used which yields a lighter, tangier sandwich filling. He calls for using poached chicken, but the leftover roast chicken from last night would work beautifully as well.

WONDERFUL CHICKEN CURRY SALAD
I created this salad for a party last year. It tastes wonderful, and everyone asks for the recipe. Serve on croissants or lettuce leaves. For a fancy presentation, line a platter with red leaf lettuce, and top with cream puff shells that have been stuffed with salad (small shells for appetizers or large shell for main dish).
