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 was also totally inspired by the same blog post and made them with a spicy kick! These are totally addictive!
Noms! I love to roast chickpeas with Asparagus in the spring. It’s one of my favorite quick meals, but I still havent cooked them crispy for snacking yet…. You are now person number 5 (or more I lost count) to post these so I think they are in odred very soon!
looks good! I saw a recipe from the whole living magazine last week that I was going to try too.
Okay, that is seriously spooky. I was *just* about to go look for a recipe for these (I bought a can of chickpeas a few weeks ago to make some) and up popped your blog in my google reader. Woo!
Mmm, so glad everyone is loving these. And now I know what to make for my friend’s superbowl party! Thanks for the reminder!
I love that you use canned chickpeas for this! When I saw the title I thought “mmm, tasty, but you probably have to do dried chickpeas and blah blah blah”. But you don’t! And it’s a perfect quick use for the extra cans I have in the pantry so that I don’t have to keep making hummus. 🙂
I’ve already put some of your Super Bowl recipes on my menu for Sunday, including the mini ham & cheese sandwiches. We live in Pittsburgh and are huge Steelers fans, so we’re REALLY EXCITED!!!
Hope your Superbowl menu turns out great. Although I have to admit, I’ll be rooting against your team!
love the smoked paprika 🙂
I have yet to try these and really just need to jump in and do it! Thanks for the reminder 😉
Have been meaning to make these! So yummy to snack on and crazy good for you. Need to make these soon..
Great snack. What if I am dried chickpeas not canned. Does it need to be soaked overnight?

How interesting! I love chickpeas and am going to make these this weekend! Thanks!
Neev – I’m really not sure how to do this with dried chickpeas. I’ve only used canned. I would assume you would want to soak them overnight first.
