Try a Cashew Chicken Salad in a Sandwich on a Hot Summer Evening

The title is pretty self-explanatory, and I think you'll agree that this is a nice way to spend a summer evening. Kettle (crunchy) potato chips on the side, a couple of home-made cookies or a brownie, some carrot sticks, and you've got a pretty decent brown-bag lunch, too. The original recipe (from Taste of Home, Aug/Sep 09) calls for pumpernickel bread.

4 sammies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Bowl 1

  • 1 1/2 cups cubed cooked turkey (or chicken)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced celery
  • 2 tablespoons chopped dried apricots
  • 2 tablespoons chopped unsalted cashews
  • 1 green onion, sliced

Bowl 2

Last But Not Least

Directions

  1. 1
    Combine Bowl 1 ingredients.
  2. 2
    Combine Bowl 2 ingredients; add to Bowl 1, stir to coat.
  3. 3
    Place a lettuce on four of the bread slices; top that with 1/2 cup of salad mixture; finish each with a remaining slice of bread.
  4. 4
    As simple as that!
  5. 5
    How about switching out the cashews for walnuts or pecans? Raisins or grapes (cut in half) for the apricots. Mmm-good!
