  1. Found this to be a sensational recipe!! This will soothe your taste buds, especially if your'e not fond of mayo. Also trying some fresh fruit on the side is a bonus for those who want to eat healthy!!
     
  2. Great easy and quick recipe. Better for you than a mayo based chicken salad. We found that it was a bit creamy with the stated sour cream amount. So reducing that will make it less creamy and better in my opinion. Other than that, it was fantastic!
     
  3. great sandwich! i have to admit, i felt a bit so so about it when i tasted it from the bowl, but once i added the bread and the lettuce -- fabulous! made for PAC fall 2008.
