This time of year I sure love a good Chicken Salad Sandwich! I like to make a big batch of this chicken salad and have it on hand to eat on sandwiches or even on a bed of lettuce. The grapes give it just the right balance of sweetness, and I just love the crunch it has! I really enjoy eating this Chicken Salad on croissants, but it is also delicious on Hawaiian rolls. My family loves these sandwiches just as much as I do, and when it is just too hot to cook, this Chicken Salad Croissant recipe is super simple to make and makes for the perfect, refreshing summer meal!
Note: Sometimes I like to add chopped walnuts or pecans to this Chicken Salad as well, just depends on the mood I’m in. I’ve also added diced green pepper before and that was super delicious as well. Really the possibilities are endless, so you can cater it to your own taste. Hope you enjoy!
