What do YOU like to make for dinner when it is 91 degrees in your house?

It has chicken and chutney and peanuts. Hmmm, let me

check my recipe file tonight. I thought mom said it came from that book! She can't find her layered salad recipe, I asked her last night.

 
Here is one that I made from Sunset cookbook or magazine. REC: Layered Curry Chicken Salad

I haven't made this in a long time and it was really good. I am going to make this for our next family get together.
