It has been a few days since I have posted, but that doesn't mean I haven't been makin' food. This chicken salad sandwich was very delightful. Tossed with mayo(of your choice, of course), red grapes, cashews and extra special crunch from both cut up cucumbers and dill pickles. This one one I will come back for. My only suggestion is to mix in your cashews before you eat it, otherwise they get quite soggy, which I knew would happen, but I mixed them all in at the first meal....Eat Up!

COOL CUCUMBER CHICKEN SALAD
1 cucumber, peeled and diced (to taste)
1/2 cup red grapes, halved or quartered
2 cooked chicken breast, shredded (or you can used canned chicken or even tuna?)
Salt and Pepper, to taste
Mayo - use discretion, some like more, some like less
1 dill pickle, chopped
Cashews/pecans/walnuts
Mix everything except cashews together. Refrigerate 30-60 minutes minimum for flavors to incorporate. I mixed nuts in right away, but on the second round of making these, I will probably just sprinkle them on top of the chicken salad before putting the top piece of bread on. Would be great on a crossant with some lettuce.
*If you don't eat it all in one sitting, you may want to add 1tsp-1Tbsp of mayo the next day to moisten it back up again
