Chicken Salad (Sandwiches)

This a delicious way to prepare a traditional chicken salad, just in time for this beautiful spring weather we are enjoying! I love all the crunchy veggies that are packed in there, it just makes it taste so summery ;)
 

Chicken Salad

2 cans chicken (have also used shredded rotisserie chicken when I had leftovers)
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 c. dill pickles, chopped (homemade are awesome!)
3 apples, peeled and chopped
1 c. peas
3 green onions, sliced

Sauce:
3/4 c. sour cream
1/4 c. mayonnaise
3 Tbs. heavy cream (I have used milk in a pinch too)

Mix sauce ingredients together and season with garlic powder, seasoning salt, pepper and a bit of dry ranch powder (I have used Epicure spices too, and have also omitted the ranch powder, it all tastes delish). Toss chopped veggies and chicken with the sauce. Serve on croissants (the best), rolls or pita bread.

I usually half the recipe for just our family, it makes a fair bit, hope you enjoy :)
