Canned chicken and fresh chopped vegetables make these chicken salad sandwiches quick and easy. The recipe is versatile, too. Add chopped hard-boiled eggs, scallions, dill or sweet pickle relish, or fresh chopped herbs. Or season the chicken salad with curry powder or a seasoning blend and add dried fruit or sliced grapes. I love the sandwiches in soft toasted buns or New England hot dog rolls. These chicken salad sandwiches are an excellent choice for a quick lunch!
