Week 39, Recipe 5: Rotisserie Chicken Salad Sandwiches

Not the best picture but you get the idea!

NOTES
  • A rotisserie chicken is so convenient for a quick meal. We actually had the chicken for dinner one night with baked potatoes and then I made chicken salad that night for the next day's lunch and dinner.
  • I doubled the recipe below to have enough for 4 sandwiches.
INGREDIENTS
  • 1 1/2 c. chopped or shredded cooked chicken
  • 1/2 c. chopped celery (about 1 stalk)
  • 1/2 c. chopped cucumber
  • 1/4 c. sliced green onions (about 2)
  • 1/3 c salad dressing or mayo
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp fresh minced tarragon or basil (optional)
  • salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
1. In a medium bowl, combine the chicken through the green onions.
2. For the dressing in a small bowl stir together mayo, lemon juice, tarragon or basil, and 1/4 tsp salt (more to taste). Add pepper to taste.
3. Mix dressing into chicken mixture. Cover and chill at least 1 hour.
