Chicken Salad Sandwich from Leftovers
When you only have 2 chicken strips left, you might think there isn’t enough to do anything with. Well think again because I made a delicious chicken salad sandwich from leftovers.
I cut the two strips in pieces and put in my blender with a cut up hard-boiled egg. It only needs to be blended for about 10 – 15 seconds, just enough to chop the chicken and egg. Next I added a teaspoon of pickle relish and about a tablespoon of mayonnaise and mixed it all together. If I had slivered almonds I would have added them to the mix or even olives would be good.
You could serve this on a bed of lettuce or as a sandwich. I opted to make a sandwich on wheat bread and was it delicious and filling. Notice my fancy plate, since we have coffee filters left over from before we got our Kuerig, I use them as a plate! There I go again, is it frugal or cheap? LOL
So next time you only have a small amount of leftovers, be creative with what you make with it!

With light mayo, this could be a very point friendly chicken salad (if chicken breast, it is zero points, as is the egg.) The pickle relish is a yummy addition, too.
Yes, it is chicken breast Alana. I’m not sure about the point system, is that WW? I know nuts are also high in protein and I’d like to add them or olives next time. Let me know if you try it! Thanks for stopping by.
HI Martha,
That is a great idea.
After chasing around in the blender for a while it doesn’t matter if the chicken or the egg came first.
