Chicken, Carrot and Cucumber Salad + Top Chef Exclusive!

I have about five minutes to spare, so this is going to be snappy! For lunch today, I had what I made last night around dinner time: Chicken, Carrot and Cucumber Salad.

I DO recommend this salad. I DO NOT recommend making it the day before – the mayonaise liqui-fied over night. Eek!

Anyway, here are the ingredients for this beast. A very simple salad, I promise you!

See the slightly watery difference? That’s ok. I still ate it!

A couple fun things popped up in my email today.

News of the Day

If you’ve checked out my twitter or facebook page, then you might have noticed that (along with Hangry Pants and Heather Bakes) I am interviewing Stephanie Izardwinner of Top Chef, Season 4. I had intended on keeping this a secret, but since HP and HB announced it on their blogs – I couldn’t help but join in the fun :)

I have conferenced with HP about this, and we are making sure to not overlap questions. BUT, if you do have any last minute items you’re dying to ask, feel free to post them here! I will do my best to ask Stephanie today.

What’s your news of the day??

  1. so excited to see the interviews!!! that's awesome :)


    What was the craziest thing that happened on Top Chef?

    Were there things done to specifically cause drama, or do they just let things happen naturally?

  2. Beautiful salad!
    Cognratulations on your cool interview.
    My news: I'm getting a haircut!! I have short hair and it becomes mullet-ish when it grows (which is fast), so this makes haircuts fabulous! And I just like them.

  6. Too bad the salad went watery the day after. I would imagine it was the cucumbers - maybe if you only mix them in when you go to eat it, it would stay thicker?
