Chicken Egg Salad

People talking
I love both Chicken Salad and Egg Salad sandwiches. Today I felt inspired to create a recipe which really highlighted both ingredients. This recipe doesn't have any fruit in it because I prefer no fruit in my sandwiches. For those of you who are watching your carbs this would be very good stuffed in a large tomato or on top of a green salad too. Chilling enhances flavor, but if you are hungry enough eating it immediately after preparing it tastes pretty wonderful too. Cooking time is chilling time.

This recipe is a favorite in my house. The amounts of chicken (use chicken thighs for juicy chicken) and eggs can be increased to feed large groups. I also like adding a little bit of paprika in to make all the flavors come together.
-
I use dill pickles instead of sweet and a pinch of garlic salt.

I had three leftover small chickens from going to Dixie Stampede. They always give us way more than we can eat! My husband was wanting some chicken salad but I wasn't impressed with the last chicken salad recipe I had made, so I was trying to find a new one. I am SO GLAD I found this recipe!!! It is fantastic!! I diced up the leftover chicken into small pieces and ended up with 3 cups of diced chicken. I used a couple of Tablespoons of diced yellow pepper instead of the green pepper. I only used 3 hard boiled eggs and I also left out the sugar and salt. It turned out fabulous!!

Awesome easy recipe. I also added grapes and sliced almonds to the recipe. I could eat this everyday -
This is really great! We have quit dining out and I am tired of making the same thing all of the time. I had some grilled chicken breast in the freezer. They were marinated in Pesto, yellow mustard and olive oil. I used them plus the eggs. I had no onion so I used dehydrated soaked in lime juice and left out bell pepper. I added tarragon. I can see adding in the pepper and even red or yellow peppers.
