Oh, yes! Sandwich Salads, it’s finally the right season for some fun food!
Summer Salads don’t have to only be in a bowl with greens and dressing. Do they?
We all have our favorite sandwich salads. The recipes and preparation methods are quite varied. One of the great things about sandwich salads is the amount of variety! There are folks out there who do not eat mayonnaise. Oh gasp! I’ve found some interesting substitute’s for mayonnaise including pulverized avocados! I’m sharing a Chicken Salad recipe today using Honey Mustard instead of mayonnaise which is super yummy and a family favorite at our house.
This is our 4th post in our #SummerSaladSeries 2014. You can find the links to all of the rest of this series as you scroll down. Don’t miss this yummy recipe first though!

I’ve tried to comment once before, but I’ve been traveling all day (from FL to SC) and the cell service was more off than on along I-95.
All of your sandwich salads look delish! My favorite (it’s gonna sound strange) is to core and slice an apple really thin and fill a whole wheat pita with arugula or spring mix, the apple slices and sesame ginger dressing. It’s been my fave for a while now.
