My Go To Chicken Salad







The other week our local Publix had boneless skinless chicken breasts on sale so I bought two packages of them. Sometimes I like to take a break from cooking on the weekends and just prepare some stuff that is easy and all you have to do is put it together. I boiled some of the chicken and chopped it up and made 4 cups of chicken for this recipe. You can half it. I made enough for the weekend as someone likes to have 2 sandwiches when he eats....we won't say who though lol. You can serve this on any kind of bread. Even on a bed lettuce.

Ingredients

4 cups of cooked chopped up chicken. ( I actually shredded the chicken by hand into small pieces )
1/2 cup or more of minced celery which I even included some of the leaves.
1/4 cup of sweet relish
1 tsp of lemon juice
1 cup of mayo
1/2 tsp of onion powder
1/4 tsp of salt, garlic powder, sugar and black pepper


Mix ingredients. Cover and let chill for about 2 hours and serve on toasted Texas toast.

Ham and Cheese Sliders



I love parties that have a meat and cheese tray. Making up your own sandwich and sitting down to watch the game is great too. Here's a wonderful recipe for warm ham and cheese sliders ( which are little sandwiches ) for your next get together. Superbowl is coming up soon!


Ingredients
24 small potato rolls ( you will find these where the burger buns are )
1/2 lb thinly sliced deli ham
1/2 lb thinly sliced swiss cheese
1 stk of butter
2 Tbsp mustard
2 tsp worcestershire sauce2 Tbsp of poppy seeds
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a sauce pan melt the butter, mustard worcestershire, and poppy seeds together.
Cut the rolls in half.
Lightly brush the inside of each roll with the butter mixture making sure there is some left.
Next place one slice of ham and one slice of cheese them put the tops back on.
Place the sliders in a 9 x13 baking dish and lightly drizzle or brush the tops with the remaining butter mixture.
Cover with foil and bake for 10-15 mins till the cheese is melted.
