It is the perfect option for your next get together, picnic or just a quick and easy lunch or dinner.

Sweet and Crunchy Chicken Salad Sandwiches

Servings 4
Author Emilie at Baby Loving Mama

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup KRAFT Miracle Whip Dressing
  • 1/2 teaspoon salad supreme seasoning
  • 1 cup chopped leftover cooked rotisserie chicken
  • 2 tablespoons chopped PLANTERS pecans
  • 1/2 cup grapes sliced in half horizontally
  • 1 stalk celery finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Stir Miracle Whip dressing and salad supreme in medium bowl until well blended. Mix in remaining ingredients. Chill until serving.
  2. Serve with crackers or on your favorite bread such as croissants, dinner rolls or hoagie buns.

If you are not already familiar with salad supreme seasoning, look for it within your grocer’s spice aisle. It is a mixture of romano cheese, salt, paprika, pepper, garlic, sesame seeds and more. It is perfect for seasoning any mayo or MIRACLE WHIP dressing for pasta salads. I also love it for seafood salad.

There are many options in which to serve this chicken salad. Tastes fabulous on croissants, dinner rolls or even just with crackers.  Other ingredient options that would work well include chopped apple, dried cranberries, bacon or walnuts.  Also works great served with lettuce and tomato! You can tailor it to your families preferences.

  1. This sounds really good! Since I’m a vegetarian I would make it without chicken or use a soy chicken substitute!
