Recently, I was challenged to create a recipe for the “Skinny Mama-Cooking With Mustard Recipe Contest”, sponsored by Saucy Mama. After creating several recipes, I’m entering my favorite: Smoky Garlic Chicken Salad. In this salad, I used avocado and Saucy Mama’s Smoky Garlic Mustard blended together to create a delicious binder, instead of mayonnaise. This recipe fits within the popular South Beach and Atkins diet plans.
I mentioned a giveaway…Courtesy of Saucy Mama, the giveaway is a gift set of their delicious mustard, featuring: Saucy Mama Tarragon Lemon Mustard, Saucy Mama Dijon, and Saucy Mama Smoky Garlic Mustard. To enter for this giveaway, just leave a comment on this post by Friday, March 2, 2012, 9:00 p.m. EST. The winner will be chosen at random and notified on Monday, March 5, 2012.

Smoky Garlic Chicken Salad
Serves 2
1 cup chopped chicken breast, boneless & skinless
1 boiled egg, chopped
2 tablespoons red onion, finely chopped
1/2 avocado, divided(chop half into pieces, leave remaining piece whole)
2 tablespoons Saucy Mama Smoky Garlic Mustard
Salt & Pepper, to taste

In a bowl, mash the larger piece of avocado with Saucy Mama Smoky Garlic Mustard until smooth and creamy. Add chicken, egg, onion, and remaining chopped avocado, stirring to bind together. Divide greens between to plates and top each with a mound of chicken salad. Sprinkle with smoked paprika
mustard is my favorite condiment… after frank’s hot sauce.
