Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Salad Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, chopped walnuts, chopped celery, halved grapes, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined.

  2. 2

    Chill the Salad

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the chicken salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 3

    Prepare the Bread

    Take two slices of whole grain bread and lay them flat on a clean surface.

  2. 4

    Add Lettuce and Tomato

    On one slice of bread, place a leaf of lettuce followed by a slice of tomato.

  3. 5

    Add Chicken Salad

    Spoon a generous amount of the chilled walnut chicken salad onto the lettuce and tomato layer.

  4. 6

    Top with Bread

    Place the second slice of bread on top to complete the sandwich.

  5. 7

    Repeat for Remaining Sandwiches

    Repeat the assembly process for the remaining slices of bread and chicken salad until all sandwiches are made.

  6. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half if desired and serve immediately, or keep them in a container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
