dianegrapegrower's Note:

I combined a number of my favorite things to come up with this tasty sandwich. This is a great use for leftover chicken. Makes a great summer supper, or hearty lunch.

WOW Diane, what a wonderful chicken salad sandwich this is!!! Made a few substitutions: NO onions so used onion powder, no celery so used fresh minced lovage leaves, and no pimento so used the last of our fresh garden tomatoes. I also added a few fresh snipped marjoram leaves and skipped the Tabasco this time. DH and I thank you for a wonderful lunch that we both enjoyed and will certainly make again. :) Becky

Delish! I just doubled the amount of onions and celery because I like the crunch. I used a teaspoon of chili paste instead of the hot sauce. Very pretty and tasty salad.
