Curry Chicken Salad

Thursday, July 3rd, 2008

We have had several requests for our Curry Chicken Salad recipe over the past week, so we thought we would share it with the world!

The ingredients
6 large cans of chicken (or chicken cooked the night before)
4 green apples
1 lb cashews
1/2 lb raisins
Curry Powder
Mayonnaise

Optional ingredients
1 red onion
3 tomatoes
1/2 bunch of celery

Directions
Mix diced green apples, crushed cashews, raisins, and chicken in a large bowl. The optional ingredients can also be added, but thorough testing has proven that the simpler, the better. Add mayonnaise and curry powder to taste. As with all ECHO meals, the most important ingredients are attention to detail and lots of love. Serves 20 in bowls or wraps.

River Guacamole

Friday, February 1st, 2008

“River guacamole” is our famous guacamole recipe that originated with world traveler and ECHO guide extraordinaire Jeremy Thomas. He says “Keep it simple – mayo / sour cream are for crazy Russians (Vlad) to eat right out of the tub – THEY DO NOT GO IN GUAC.”

The ingredients
10 moderately squishy avocados
6 tomatoes
2 yellow onions
3 Jalapeno peppers
1 bunch of cilantro
4 limes
Salt

Directions
Fill up your ECHO cup with a fresh Riverita™. Mash the avocados, tomatoes, onions, and peppers in a bowl. The 3 Jalapeno peppers will make it spicy, so add more or less depending on your tolerance. Cut the limes in half and squeeze lime juice on top. Add salt to taste. Continue tasting the guacamole and drinking your Riverita™ until you deem it perfect.

The two most important parts of this recipe
1. You’ll want to get just the right amount of salt. This may take many taste tests.
2. Be sure to drinks Riveritas™ in an ECHO cup during the whole process. The recipe for Riveritas™ is an ECHO secret, so you’ll have to come on one of our trips for the full river guacamole experience.
