I must admit that I liked this much more than I thought I would going into it. The idea intrigued me though so I had to try it. Surprisingly the leftover chicken breast I used and the can of tuna complimented each other rather nicely. I have never added egg, or olives to my tuna or chicken salad when I make then individually but since that is what you listed I decided to give it a try. I did not add the artichokes since I didn't have any in the cupboard but this is a traditional addition to salads for me so I know I would like that. I enjoyed the olives but once I added the eggs the overall taste factor went down a bit for me. I added fresh lemon juice and snipped parsley to end the dish and found that those were nice additions. I served this on a toasted english muffin. This is a good base for an interesting twist on a traditional meat salad for lunch and I will play around with the additions until I find something that I really enjoy. Thank you for posting!

July 2008 update: VERY happy to be back on Zaar after about a two year absence due to having had no internet connection at home, and having been too unwell for a time so that getting re-connected wasn't even a priority!
<br>
<br>And really looking forward to getting back into the Zaar world and connecting again with the many wonderful people I knew before, and new people, of course!
