Dill Chicken Salad Sandwiches
I recently saw this easy recipe for dill chicken salad sandwiches on Cooking Classy. It looked so hearty, delicious, and filled with great flavors and textures that I couldn’t wait to try it. I served this chicken salad on nutty whole-grain bread with crisp romaine lettuce and it was an awesome sandwich that filled me right up. This chicken salad would be great plain or in lettuce wraps too.

I love chicken salad sandwiches and this one looks like it came from a gourmet cafe. I also love the looks of that bread. What brand is it?
Mmmm, this looks so fresh and healthy! Love that you incorporated grapes and cashews.
That looks awesome!
I think I’m just going to start coming to your house for lunch…. and breakfast.. and dinner!!!
Wow…that’s one delicious looking sandwich!
Oh this looks awesome, Pam. It reminds me of a Waldorf Salad on steroids!!!
Thanks so much for sharing…
The bread alone sold me on that sandwich! And I love the idea of using buttermilk in the sauce. Sounds delicious!
That is one serious sandwich! Packed with so many different flavors…I wouldn’t have thought to pair dill with grapes, but if it works, it works!
This sounds so delicious, a great sandwich for lunch.
I normally don’t care for grapes and nuts in my chicken salad but I could handle cashews. Just not walnuts or pecans, ick.
Glad to have your feed back! (And always appreciate your “feedback”, lol)
I just (recently) came across this recipe, but it looks as though it’s been around for a while. I used ‘lite mayo’, ‘fresh dill’, and ‘red seedless grapes’. I kept everything else the same as it was in the original recipe. It was terrific! I served it at a Luncheon in ‘Croissants’ with ‘Butter Lettuce’, and also with a ‘Spinach (side) Salad. Homemade “Italian Lemon Cookies” were for for dessert. Everyone loved the “Chicken Salad”, so thanks for the recipe!
