I don't know what all the fuss is. Chicken Salad sandwiches are great. You can make them with lots of ingredients. I prefer a couple spoons of sandwich spread over the mayo, at least it adds a little flavor, then just a very small bit of honey mustard. I love the little green onions finely chopped and tossed in with a little bit of grated cheddar cheese. I don't add lettuce that should be on top of the holding system whether bread or a flour tortilla warmed up to being soft. then you put your lettuce on it or a slice of bread, then spoon a good sized helping on top. I prefer the flour tort's, roll it up and munch away.
I can put almost anything in it because my wife does not really like chicken salad. I myself love it. Another nice use of yesterdays chicken is a green chicken salad, you know typical lettuce tomato cucumber, onions, cheese, then add some chopped up chicken toss a couple of big spoons of salsa as a topping instead of a salad dressing, and you get a nice filling salad with a little bit of a bite.
But yours sounded good also.
Hey, @bashadow.
Hypothetically speaking, yours sounds much better. This version, however, is meant for vegetables like the peas, carrots, green beans, corn and potatoes. I'm not sure if that's what makes it Mexican, but essentially, those are the ingredients. I like peas, carrots and corn, so if this weren't hypothetical, with picky eaters, that's what I would have gone with. :)
Chicken salad done right is really good. So is tuna salad, turkey salad and so forth.
Yes there are a lot of ways to make a nice chicken/tuna/whatnot salad sandwich, finely chopped left over roast beef is good to, no sloppy joe gooey mess dripping down your chin when you make it salad style.
