i have a serious soft spot for sandwiches.
i could eat them everyday. and in fact, i do.
i'm a staunch sandwich-for-lunch gal.
but it's not everyday that i make this sandwich.
nope. this one is extra special.
reserved for dinnertime, even.
when i made this favorite a few nights ago,
i served it with these nifty wedges, mom's baked beans,
and this salad. it felt just like summertime.
i was ready to head outside & watch fireworks.
with chicken salad, i like to play around.
mayo or miracle whip. grapes or apples or baby gherkins.
dorothy lynch or vinegar. dill or honey mustard.
here's what i did for this batch..
summer style chicken salad
roughly 2 c. cooked chicken
3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 braeburn apple, diced
plenty of coarse salt & pepper
a dollop of mayo
a sprinkle of dill
a dash of cayenne pepper
serve atop toasted wheat bread & fresh spinach.

I love a good chicken salad.
apples in your chicken salad??? as the over used, cheesy, disney channel original movie-worthy line goes, "who are you, and what have you done with my sister???"
summer, this looks delish! and with the way you write about it, it makes it 10 times better. love it!
