Curried Waldorf Salad

This is a combination of two classic salads: the Waldorf and the curried chicken salad. On the one hand you get the fruit and nut flavours from the Waldorf and then the subtle smokiness from the curry powder. All of these are mixed together with a low fat yogurt dressing and paired with sweet roasted peppers and crunchy iceberg lettuce. We love layering this salad in one large or four individual mason jars for a stunning presentation.
