Health benefits of Curried Turkey Salad

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form. Apples will improve your body's sensitivity to insulin (Reference: http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/27/1/281.full)

Ingredients

6 tbsps light mayonnaise
2 large eggs, hard boiled
1/2 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp ground ginger
0.12 tsp nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
12 oz turkey breast
2 medium sour green apples
3 tbsps lemon juice
2 stalks medium celery
2 medium pickles
2 tbsps crushed almonds

Instructions

1. Cook the turkey breast ahead of time and cut into small pieces. (I like to poach it and then squeeze out the excess water when cubing or shredding.) Place turkey in a large bowl.

2. Chop the eggs, pickles, celery and apples into small cubes and add to the bowl with the turkey.

3. Add the almonds, ground or sliced to your preference.

4. Whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and spices (salt, curry powder, ginger, nutmeg) and then pour over turkey mixture.

5. Stir well, making sure to fold over from the side to avoid crushing the ingredients.
