PINEAPPLE CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH

This makes a light enjoyable meal in the summertime, and also cut smaller, as a lovely hors d'oeuvre. Try sauteeing the chicken breast meat, (Recipe #226050), instead of poaching, it is much more flavorful. I usually add a little bit of finely chopped celery for a bit of crunch!
