Ingredients

   East Indies Dressing

• 1 beef bouillon cube
• 1/4 cup boiling water
• 1 teaspoon instant minced onion
• 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
• 1 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing

   Salad

• 2 cups julienne carrot strips
• 3 cups julienne cooked chicken strips
• 2 cups julienne zucchini strips
• 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
• Green onions and tomato wedges (optional)

Make the dressing at least 2 hours before needed. In a small bowl dissolve bouillon cube in boiling water. Stir in onion and curry powder. Using wire whisk, gradually beat in mayonnaise until smooth. Refrigerate until needed. (Dressing keeps up to one month in refrigerator.)

For the salad, in a 2-quart saucepan over high heat, bring 1 inch of water to a boil. Add carrots. Cook 3 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and rinse under cold running water until cool. Refrigerate until cold. In a large bowl place carrots, chicken, zucchini and almonds. Pour refrigerated dressing over and toss until well coated. Garnish with optional sliced green onions and tomato wedges.
