Directions
Margarita Chicken Salad Sandwiches, The only thing better than chicken salad is margarita chicken salad , This was wonderful Hubby & I both really enjoyed it I added chopped onion, because not much hits our table without onion The only critique hubby had was that he thought it needed more crunch and more heat Next time I make it I will add a chili pepper or two, depending on what I have on hand I also will toast some walnuts or pecans and add those in as well , I skipped the celery lettuce and tomato and instead of croissants, I put it in grilled flour tortillas with a little bit of cilantro lime sour cream Amazing! I won best tailgate food at the Cincinnati Jimmy Buffett tailgate with it last week!
