I love Paula and she can cook for me anytime! I cut the recipe down for 1 sandwich. This chicken salad is heavenly (and messy) lol! I did leave off the thousand Island (never did like it) but followed the rest of the directions. Afraid with this calorie count I won't have another (maybe in a few months). Thanks for sharing Sheribeth. Made for I Recommend Tag Game.

Wonderful sandwiches! I used canned chicken, parsley instead of cilantro, and stacked everything on country sourdough slices. Yummers! When I cut each sandwich in half, all of the 'inners' came squishing out, lol. They were a little messy, but good. Thanks Sherrybeth for sharing these. Contrats on your football win!
