CHICKEN SALAD & CUCUMBER SANDWICH

Chicken Salad & Cucumber Sandwich image

This is so easy, so summer and so good!! I made these the other day and everyone loved them. They have a nice crunch to them with the cucumbers and onion and go well with chips, soup or a salad. I made this with JAP's, Rose Mary Mogan's - Hidden Valley Ranch Crunchy Peas & Pepper Salad. Picture below. Pictures are mine.

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

8 slices honey wheat bread
12.5 oz can white chunck chicken breast, well drained
1/2 c mayonnaise
1/2 c diced yellow onion
1/2 cucumber, sliced thin
1 tomato, sliced (optional)
alfalfa sprouts

Steps:

1. In a medium bowl, add chicken and onions. Mix to make chicken flakey. Add in mayonnaise until well blended.
2. Lay 4 slices of bread down. (I spread a little mayo on the slices) Top each with the chicken salad. (I add a little salt & pepper) Cover chicken salad with slices of cucumbers, about four slices, then top cucumbers with tomato slices ( I like mine without tomato )
3. Then add the alfalfa sprouts on top of the cucumbers. Add as much as you like. Top with remaining bread.
4. I like to cut my sandwiches in half and add a slice of cucumber on top with a toothpick if serving guests. Makes a pretty presentation.
5. I made this with Rose Mary's salad (pictured) and delish! But also goes well with chips, fruit or a light soup.

CRAIG CLAIBORNE'S CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH

Craig Claiborne's Chicken Salad Sandwich image

Originally printed in 1981, here is Craig Claiborne's take on the classic chicken salad sandwich. In his version, a combination of mayonnaise (preferably homemade) and yogurt is used which yields a lighter, tangier sandwich filling. He calls for using poached chicken, but the leftover roast chicken from last night would work beautifully as well.
