Open Faced Chicken Salad Club
Hubby needed a quick meal so I threw this together for him and he loved it!
Chicken Salad Club (by ME!) – serves 21 can cooked chicken
2 Tbsp mayo
1/2 granny smith apple – chopped
2 Tbsp dried cranberries
4 Tbsp slivered almonds
4 pieces cooked turkey bacon
4 pieces cheddar cheese
4 pieces wheat bread
Mix first 5 ingredients to make chicken salad. Lightly toast the bread. Assemble sandwich by stacking cheese, bacon, then chicken salad on one piece of bread. Bake in oven for about 5 minutes until the cheese is melted.






I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 






Now I think bacon wrapped dates are amazing… but stuffed with goat cheese & almond?! Yum! I wish I knew of this before my Tapas party last weekend 🙂
These are absolutely amazing!
wow sooooo good, recently had something like these (maybe minus the goat cheese?) at a reception. but i love goat cheese. need to buy me some dates 🙂
Yay for goat cheese! It really does make them better, doesn’t it?
Okay, so I had these babies at a party in rural Massachusetts this weekend, and I have no idea who made them (they were part of a HUGE spread and like 100 people brought food), and I’m wondering, given your proximity, whether or not I may have possibly eaten your delights unknowingly?
Aleta – it was not me, although it sounds like a great party. These always get gobbled up anywhere we take them!
do you think these would be good at room temperature?
I am going to an outdoor concert next week and wanted to bring some finger food!
These are awesome at room temperature. We’ve made them a ton. You can make them and refrigerate for a couple days before grilling/broiling, you can also go ahead and cook them just leave them at room temperature. I prefer them at room temperature actually.
Would you imagine using some milder-tasting cheese like Brie tasting good?
