My kids love chicken salad sandwiches. My mom had given me this incredible recipe a few years ago and since my move I have searched and cannot find it anywhere!! I'm actually in total shock I did not share it here with all of you it was THAT GOOD! The other day when they were begging for these sandwiches I created a new version and it is pretty close to my mom's. I splurged and bought croissants which made it feel a little more fancy. It was a hit and tasted oh so delicious!
Chicken Salad Sandwiches
2 1/2 cups cooked chicken, diced or shredded
1 cup diced celery
1/4 cup diced onion
1 1/2 cup grapes, cut in half
1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup Miracle Whip or Mayonnaise, whichever your preference
3 teaspoons Italian Dressing
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl adding more seasoning to taste if needed. Place on your favorite bread.
*The nice thing about this recipe is you can change it up. Sometimes I like to use diced apples instead of grapes or cashews instead of almonds. Find your favorite combination.

Sometimes I just like to eat it with out the bread too!
My daughter just peeked over my shoulder to see what I was doing and her reaction was,
" I can't believe they weren't already on here. They are delicious!!"
MMMMMM...this may be dinner tonight, that is if I can wait than long!
Enjoy!
This looks absolutely delicious. I imagine I would eat it straight out of the bowl! (Although everything is better on a croissant!)
