Chicken Salad Recipe On Sandwich Thins
Growing up tuna fish sandwiches were a staple in our lives, a well loved staple I might add. Until I married my husband I didn’t realize that what I had actually grown up with was tuna salad sandwiches, hearing those words growing up I always I visioned sliced tuna fish in bread with lettuce and tomato. Yuck is what I have to say to that. Little did I know right?
Not only did I not know I was eating tuna salad sandwiches I didn’t know about chicken salad sandwiches either until Grandpa Don passed away and the church hosted a luncheon for the family. What a surprise did I receive when I bit into what I thought was tuna fish, a tuna fish like I had never had before. One that didn’t taste like tuna at all, packed with celery and grapes. Perhaps. It the best timing but I leaned over to my mother in law and said what the heck am I eating! A new love was awakened that day for me.
Chicken salad sandwiches are delicious! How did I not know about these growing up? Of course it meant that I had to hurry home and make up my own chicken salad recipe of this new found sandwich minus the grapes, while I love grapes they just don’t do it for me in this sandwich. In the last year or so I have been an avid purchaser of bagel and sandwich thins. The bagel thins have the taste I crave often slathered with cream cheese but lighter on the calorie content and the sandwich thins offer variety to my meals. There is just something about using a sandwich thin in place of a bun that makes it a meal changer for me. That is just the case for my chicken salad sandwich and I must say cleaner to eat than the usual croissant because of less crumbs.
Chicken Salad Recipe on Sandwich Thins
Chicken Salad Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 2 - 2 1/2 cups cooked diced chicken
- 2 celery stalks with leaves finely diced
- 1/4 cup purple onion
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup miracle whip
- 4 teaspoons Worcestershire
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup halved red grapes (optional)
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Combine garlic powder, Worcestershire, miracle whip and mayonnaise in medium bowl and mix well.
- Add chicken, celery stalks, onion and grapes to the mayonnaise mixture. Coat chicken mixture well.
- Sprinkle chicken salad with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve on your favorite sandwich thin from Oroweat.
Notes
If you prefer to use all miracle whip or all mayonnaise you can. We are a miracle whip family but I wanted the zing that mayonnaise gives the sandwich so I used both.
