Instructions to make best cold sandwiches
  1. Chop the Veggies:

    For consistent flavor and even distribution of crunch throughout your dish, chop the veggies finely into small cubes. 

  2. Prepare sandwich filling:

    In a large bowl, toss together the chopped veggies, shredded chicken, mashed eggs, mayonnaise, and spices until well combined.

     

  3. Make sandwiches:

    Choose your favorite bread and trim the crusts if desired.

     Spread a generous amount of filling on each bread slice.

    Top each filled slice with another slice of bread to create a complete sandwich.

  4. Cutting your sandwiches:

    Cut your sandwiches in half, diagonally or straight across, for easy eating.

  5. Serving Suggestions:
    • Create a platter with a mix of different sandwich halves or quarters. This allows people to try a bit of everything!
    •  Incorporate colorful veggies and fruits into your fillings for a visually appealing platter. Think sliced red peppers, cucumbers, or strawberries!
    •  Cut finger-sized sandwich pieces and thread them onto skewers with cherry tomatoes, olives, or pickles for a fun finger-food option or cut mini cold sandwiches for party.
    • Compartment containers: Use lunchbox containers with compartments to keep sandwiches separate from fruits, veggies, or chips.
