Here’s how to make it yourself: Curry Chicken Salad (at least) 2 chicken breasts cut up into small cubes 1/4 cup Spectrum Canola Mayonaise 1 tablespoon currants (or 1/4 cup sliced apples or grapes) 1 tablespoon curry powder 2 teaspoons of cumin 3 green onions thinly sliced and chopped 1 celery stick thinly chopped 2 tablespoons sliced almonds 2 cloves minced garlic Pepper to taste. Combine all ingredients into a bowl and enjoy!  Pack and go!Read more

We’re looking for the silliest CrossFit-inspired photo.  Do something sporadic or stage your photo.  Dress up in costume, or not.  Tell a story or make us say “what the f&%@!?”  No rules really apply. Again, we’re looking for the SILLIEST CrossFit-inspired photo. All photo entries are due by Wednesday, November 23rd.  We’ll announce the winner the following Monday.Read more
