This
main-dish salad combines tangy mustard with
sweet mandarin oranges. The thick dressing
coats the chicken with flavor.

1 cup chopped onion
4 garlic cloves, chopped
3 rosemary sprigs

3 tablespoons egg substitute
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons country-style Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 cups gourmet salad greens

Combine
the first 5 ingredients in a Dutch oven over medium-high
heat heat. Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat,
and simmer for 12 minutes or until the chicken
is done. Remove chicken from pan, discarding liquid
and solids, and cool chicken slightly. Shred the
meat with 2 forks to measure 3 cups.
Combine
egg substitute and next 6 ingredients (egg substitute
through minced garlic) in a food processor, and
process until smooth. Place the chicken and the
honey mixture in a medium bowl; toss to coat.
Line
plates with salad greens, and top each serving
evenly with chicken salad, cucumber, tomato wedges,
and oranges.
4
servings.
