]]> Weird title, right? My husband hates chicken salad, or any cold salad sandwich. He would rather starve. I’m picky about mine, no onion or celery, please. Well, recently I created a crockpot chicken dinner and as I was eating it all I could think about was how delicious it would taste cold in a sandwich. I was talking to a friend about it and she suggested a hot chicken salad sandwich, who knew there was such a thing?

When I served it hot I served it with veggies as an entree not a sandwich. Hubby and I both loved the creamy, cheesy, bacon, ranch flavor. I packaged up the leftovers and the next day I tried it cold in a sandwich and it was just as delicious.
