Feels Like Summer Chicken Pitas

In CT, we've been looking for summer to show her face for several weeks now. Here we are, almost the middle of July, and I think, I think, that she's officially here! We celebrated with a perfect summer meal, ate it outside picnic style: chicken pitas, fruit salad (with cherries!) and artichokes. Here's the recipe for the chicken pitas. J and I combined a few recipes, used what we had on hand, and then added our own personal touches.

Chicken Pitas

2 c. cooked chicken, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1/2 c. white onion, finely chopped (I'd have gone with less but Jared was in charge of the onion and it turned out muy bueno)
1/2 c. cashew halves
1/2 c. chopped apple (we used Gala)
1/2 c. chopped red pepper

Dressing
1/2 c. mayo
6 T. sour cream or plain yogurt
1 T. honey
2 tsp. curry
dash of salt

In a medium bowl, mix the first six ingredients and stir to combine. Mix the dressing ingredients in a smaller bowl and then gently stir over the chicken mixture. We served this in pitas with fresh-from-the-garden basil tucked inside. Don't forget the garden chair and a sky full of sunshine.
