Tarragon Chicken Salad

Tarragon Chicken Salad

Tarragon Chicken Salad

This is the most amazing raw vegetarian food I have prepared so far. I have made it twice in 1 week that is how good it is. Here is the recipe.

1 1/2 c raw organic sunflower seeds (The GoRaw brand is available at Whole Foods Market)
3 stalks of organic celery
1/2 bunch of organic scallions
1/2 c organic thompson raisins

Soak seeds in spring water at least 4 hours, then drain and dry. Grind seeds in food processor to break so that they are crumbly, then place ground seeds in mixing bowl.

Dressing )
3/4 c coconut water
2 cloves of organic garlic
1/2 c organic lemon juice
Celtic Sea Salt or Himalayan Sea Salt
3 tsp organic Taragon
1 1/4 c of organic raw nuts, macadamia, cashew, pine nuts or any combination (I use all three)
1/4 c of Eden Stone Ground Organic Mustard (this is a must have, shop till you find it, this is what makes this recipe incredible)

Combine all dressing ingredients in food processor until creamy. Pour over seeds, chopped celery, scallions, and raisins, then combine. Wala, chicken salad. I have shown it with saltines. I know it is contradictory, kinda like Wonder Bread. I figure any amount of raw food is good regardless of what you serve it with. I have used whole wheat organic saltines before. This version reminds me of my Aunt Charlottes chicken salad. That is why I use the Nabisco saltines
