One of my favorite summertime receipes is for chicken salad. I boil a couple of boneless chicken breasts (I'm sure you could use can chicken instead, but I've never tried it), I let 'em cool and then shred. I dice up 2 small apples and add in a handful of sliced almonds & cranberries (it's a salad topper mix they sell in the salad dressing aisle). Then I mix with a couple of tablespoons of the LIGHT miracle whip. And voila! I usually eat it on a sandwich thin or with unsalted crackers. YUMMY! It makes quite a bit, so you'll have lunch for a few days!

I also like diced apples in a spinach sald, with leftover grilled chicken and avacado slices with a LIGHT raspberry vinagrette dressing. Mmmmmmmm!
