I love Waldorf chicken salad made with mayo, chopped veggies, nuts and grapes.
This recipe is a little twist on that, and combines beautifully aromatic curry flavor with the bright citrus burst of orange zest and juice, tart and sweet granny smith apples and dried cranberries.
It’s awesome for a picnic, brunch, garden party, bridal or baby shower or any gathering and delicious over salad, with a side of veggies, or in a wrap or sandwich. I love making party sandwiches with it! The best part is, it’s super simple and can be made the night before.

- The zest and juice of 1 orange
- 1 small red onion, chopped
