Chicken Salad Sandwich



I have never been a fan of chicken salad, but this recipe changed my mind. The marinade for this recipe is fantastic just by its self. The chicken has an amazing flavor as you add the mayo and butter. When adding the cashews, make sure you do it just before you serve it. I love it on fresh croissants, but any bread will work. Serve with fresh fruit for a yummy summer meal!






Chicken Salad Sandwich

Marinade:
1/3 cup Zesty Italian Dressing
2/3 cup soy sauce

Marinate 1-3 hours or 30 minutes to 3-4 hours. The longer you marinate, the better the chicken will taste. I like to marinate overnight.

Recipe:
4 chicken breasts
2 stalks thinly sliced celery
4 green onions, sliced
1/8 cup melted butter, be sure to use real butter
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup cashews{ to be added just before serving}

Grill the chicken 10 minutes per side and then dice it into 1/4 inch pieces . Cool to room temperature, mix with above ingredients. Refrigerate until ready, add cashews when ready to serve.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Chocolate Covered Cream Balls

Several years ago, I sampled a Milk Chocolate Coconut at See's Candies.  It was love at first bite.  Ever since then I have made a mandatory stop every time I went into the mall to get one of these delicious chocolates.  I love them so much !  However, there are two things I didn't like about them.  1) I had to go to the mall to get them, and 2) they are SO expensive.  I think the last time I was there I paid about 75 cents for 1 chocolate. 

Bread Twists

These are my new go-to bread sticks for two reasons - taste and time. They have a wonderful buttery/garlic flavor and the kosher salt adds a delightful savory crunch.  The other thing I love about these is how quickly they come together.  It only takes one hour from start to finish.  One hour!  That's almost unheard of for a yeast bread.  Try these out next time you want some bread with your dinner but are short on time.
