- Spread the bread slices evenly with the spicy mayonnaise. Assemble each sandwich with lettuce leaves, tomato slices, two bacon strips and chicken. Serve immediately.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
