Old-Fashioned Potato Salad

Ingredients:

2-1/4 pounds red boiling potatoes, cooked, cooled, skinned
3/4 cup celery, small dice
1 cup Vidalia or other sweet onion, finely diced
1 cup Best Foods/Hellman's Light Mayonnaise
4 large eggs, hard boiled
1 large clove garlic, halved
2 to 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1-1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1-1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, or to taste

Directions:

Put whole potatoes in a 5-quart pot; cover with water to about
2-inches above potatoes, lightly sprinkle with salt and bring to a
boil. When potatoes come to a full boil, reduce heat to medium, cover
and adjust lid to let steam escape. Cook about 20 to 25 minutes; test
for tenderness with a meat fork. DO NOT OVERCOOK. When potatoes are
done, drain and set aside until cool enough to peel. Cut a large garlic
clove in half and rub the sides and bottom of the serving bowl with
each half of the garlic clove. After rubbing the bowl, mince the garlic
clove halves and set aside. Prepare remaining ingredients, beginning by
cutting the potatoes into the serving bowl, including the minced
garlic. Add fat-reduced mayonnaise and about 2 Tbsp of the red wine
vinegar. Mix all ingredients thoroughly, adding more vinegar a few
drops at a time, if needed, until desired consistency and taste is
reached. Salt and pepper to taste. Chill at least 2 to 3 hours before
serving.

Makes 8 One-Cup Servings.

Salsa Chicken

Ingredients:

8 c finely shredded iceberg lettuce
3 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1" pieces
2 large egg whites
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
8 oz chunky tomato salsa
1/2 c fat-free sour cream
Cilantro sprigs (optional)

Directions:

Divide the lettuce among 4 individual plates, cover and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the chili powder and cumin. Add the chicken,
turning to coat. Lift the chicken from the bowl, shaking off the excess
coating. Dip the chicken into the egg whites, then coat again with the
remaining dry mixture. Heat  the oil in a wide nonstick frying pan or
wok over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and stir-fry
gently until no longer pink in the center. Cut to test (5-7 minutes).
Remove the chicken from the pan and keep warm. Pour the salsa into the
pan; reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring, until the salsa is
heated through and slightly thickened. Arrange the chicken over the
lettuce; top with the salsa and sour cream. Garnish with cilantro
sprigs, if using.

Makes 4 Servings.
