    Classic Chicken Salad Sandwich

    I have a few go-to chicken salad recipes (especially this Turkish version!), but am always on the lookout for new ones. When I saw this over at A Zesty Bite's Top 10 Recipes of 2014, I knew I had to make it!

    Chopped water chestnuts, celery and onions add a nice bit of crunch to this tasty chicken salad recipe. It's simple to put together, and holds up well for several days in the refrigerator.

    I served these on potato rolls with lettuce and tomato, and some new pickles from the Farmers Market on the side. It made for a delicious lunch!

    Classic Chicken Salad Sandwich
    A Zesty Bite

    3 cups cooked chopped chicken
    ½ cup chopped celery
    ¼ cup chopped onions
    ¼ cup of chopped water chestnuts
    ½ cup mayonnaise
    ½ teaspoon of salt
    ¼ teaspoon of pepper

    Chop all vegetables and place in large bowl.

    Cut chicken into small chunks/or finer. Add the chicken and mayonnaise to the large bowl and stir.

    Add the salt and pepper and then cover with saran wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
