Coarsely chop the walnuts and toast in a dry skillet.
Rinse grapes, drain and cut in half.
Rinse celery, pat dry, remove any strings and finely chop celery.
Rinse scallions, pat dry and finely chop.
Cut the chicken into strips.
Mix all the prepared ingredients in a bowl with the sour cream, yogurt and tarragon.
Season with salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Let stand for 30 minutes.
Rinse endive, shake dry and cut out the core, then cut crosswise into thin strips and add to chicken mixture. Toast bread under a preheated broiler, watching carefully, or in a toaster oven. Divide chicken salad among toasts and serve.

Healthy, because
Thanks to its high fibre content, this salad will keep you full for a long time. And it supplies important minerals such as iron, magnesium and potassium: iron supplies the body with oxygen and thus maintains performance. Magnesium is essential for well-functioning muscles and strong nerves, and potassium for a balanced fluid balance.

Between two slices of whole grain, this salad is also an ideal companion when you are on the go: you will quickly be full and in top shape.
