Chicken Salad Sandwiches

What can I say, food is great!  Especially when you can find a great recipe that is good for you as well!


I came across this recipe in one of my cookbooks.  I finally decided to try it for lunch one day.  It really does make a great sandwich for lunch.  (I made it for lunch and chilled for 10 minutes and had lunch right away)  PLUS...if you use low-fat or fat free ingredients it's perfect for any diet plan.  :-)


Leigh's Chicken Salad

10.5 oz. canned chicken, drained
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup mayonnaise -- your favorite kind :-)
1/2 cup grapes, cut in half
1 Granny Smith apple, cut in small bites with skin left on
1/2 wedge of freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted (Optional)
salt and pepper to taste

1.  Mix ingredients together.
2.  Chill for 4 hours or overnight

Serve on favorite bread or crackers.  I used Orowheat 100% Wholewheat Sandwich Thins.


Enjoy!!!
