Those who enjoy Indian food will like this Chicken Waldorf Pita with Curried Yogurt Sauce. The curry will give the flavor and the yogurt sauce will add zest and will make you crave for more. This one is another recipe I cannot wait to prepare. Love it.

Whenever I use diced celery in a delicate salad like egg, chicken, or tuna salad, I use a trick my mom taught me. You pull the tough outer strings off the stalk of celery before dicing. Using a paring knife with the flat edge against your thumb, you grab the strings at the widest cut end of the celery stalk and pull the thicker fibrous strings off.
