Jud was at Starbucks working on a writing assignment and I decided to go to the library to look for a book and look at some magazines while there. I found this recipe Here. I discovered that I could just type in the recipe title and find it online. Then I could print it out. Much better than taking my recipe cards and writing while at the library. Who knew! Well, I guess just about everyone probably knew. I'm a little slow. This is a keeper. I added some basil to the recipe. I also didn't have Greek yogurt so I used light sour cream.

Ingredients:
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, trimmed--Jud had grilled some chicken for Memorial Day and we had some left over, so I used that.
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
3 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt
3 tablespoons cider vinegar
3 tablespoons minced onion--I used scallions
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 avocado, chopped
3 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
8 large leaves red or green leaf lettuce
4 - 10-inch flour tortillas
Method:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high
2. Sprinkle chicken on both sides with 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Oil the grill rack. Grill the chicken, turning once or twice, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, 15-18 minutes. Transfer to a clean cutting board and let cool for 5 minutes.
3. Whisk yogurt, vinegar, onion, oil, salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Chop the chicken into bite-size pieces and add to the bowl along with tomato, avocado, and bacon; toss to combine.
4. To assemble the wraps, place 2 lettuce leaves on each tortilla and top with the chicken salad. Roll up like a burrito.

Ham Quiche
I made ham for our Easter meal and used the left-overs for several different things. I made a soup which I have already posted Here
This was the quiche I made with more left-over ham. I used Tyler Florence's recipe and adapted it to what I had on hand. His recipe is Here The following is what I did.
Ingredients:
pie crust
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, sliced
6 eggs
1 pint heavy cream
2 cups ham
1 zucchini
1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Method:
Either make your favorite pie crust or buy one, like I did. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large skillet add 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil to medium heat. Add onion and cook until carmelized (it takes about 20 minutes). Add the ham and zucchini. Cook an additional 10 minutes. Put this mixture into an uncooked pie crust. Mix eggs and milk together and add salt and pepper. Pour over the ham mixture and bake for 1 hour covered with aluminum foil. Remove the foil and bake an additional 15-30 minutes until the filling is solid.
