Curried Fruit + Nut Chicken Salad

The Mix:

• About 3 oz shredded chicken breast
• 1 stalk celery, chopped
• About 10 grapes, halved
• About 1/3 cup chopped apple
• ~1.5 tbsp chopped pecans
• 1 tbsp dried cranberries
• 2 tbsp greek yogurt
• 1/2 tbsp light mayo
• 1/2 tsp-ish curry powder
• 1/4 tsp-ish cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp mustard seeds
• Dash red pepper flakes
• Dash salt and pepper

All those flavors made such a great combo! I think the cinnamon was the key ingredient. The whole salad reminded me so much of thanksgiving, and I loved the sweet grapes, apple and cranberries with the chicken and celery and spinach.

I packed a tub of spinach in a separate container and dumped on the salad when it was time to eat:
