Very good and easy to make! I used 3-4 slices of deli ham (on sale..)and left out the pecans. Served with fresh fruit and dip, and chedder slices. My whole family loved it. I'll definately make this one again.

Try this on toasted onion rolls, and marinate the chicken in Teriyaki. Added Provelone what a sandwich . WOW.

I scaled this back for 2 rolls (medium wholemeal/wholegrain), though I didn't hollow them out just split them in half and piled the mixture onto one half, though I would have used about 3/4 cup of grated cheddar cheese between the two instead of the 1/8 cup for two and put in under the grill/broiler till the cheese melted and toasted the exposed half of the roll. The DM thoroughly enjoyed hers but I when making again I would add a sprinkle of hot paprika to the cheese to give a little zing. Thank you *Pixie* and AZPARZYCH for the recommendation, made for I Recommend.

Made for dinner a few nights ago and really enjoyed! Was not sure about mixing everything and then toasting (I do not like warmed mayo) but it was very good!! Was really easy and will be added to our summer/outside eating meals!! Made for Fall PAC 2008.
