~ Pimento Chicken Salad Sandwich ~


Ingredients:
2 cups finely grated extra-sharp yellow cheddar cheese
3/4 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise
3 T. chopped pimientos
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. yellow mustard
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 cup shredded cooked chicken
salt and pepper, to taste
bread, toasted
lettuce, optional
sliced tomatoes, optional

Directions: In a medium bowl, combine the cheese, 1/2 cup mayo, pimentos, onion powder, mustard, cayenne pepper and chicken with a large spoon until well combined. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of mayonnaise as needed to get the chicken salad to the desired texture. (Usually the more finely shredded the cheese the more mayo you will need.) Now add the salt and pepper to taste. Nothing left to do now but spread it on your toasted bread, add the lettuce and tomato ... enjoy!  ~ Chef ~
