No I didn't - it wasn't one of the featured sandwiches, just a quick shot - but it got me hankering for some chicken salad...
 
If you find it let us know!

Have you tried Costco's rotisserie Chicken salad? Not bad, but we can all improve on that.
 
Can't remember where I got this recipe but it is pretty good.

2 1/2 to 3 cups diced cooked chicken
1/2 cup diced celery
3 to 4 tablespoons finely chopped purple onion
1/4 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise, or more, to taste
2 teaspoons lemon juice
Dash pepper
2 to 3 teaspoons sweet pepper relish, or to taste
dash Cajun or Creole seasoning blend, optional
Salt to taste

Preparation:
Combine chicken with celery, onion, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, lemon juice, pepper, relish, seasoning, and salt. Add more mayonnaise, as needed.
Makes 6 to 8 sandwiches, depending on size.
 
Smoked chicken, finely diced celery & onion, mayo. On a nice fresh roll topped with some bacon and a slice of cheese melted under the broiler for a few seconds.
 
Smoked chicken, chopped onion, small jar of Dill pickle relish, half n half mayo and sour cream, some dijon mustard and a few dashes of hot sauce, salt to taste. Sorry for no measurements but I always just make by eye and feel.
 
A bit old school... like my Mom's and a touch of q.

chicken, miracle whip, sweet pickle relish, jalepeno peppers, onions, celery, season with a dab of Plowboy's Yardbird (behind each ear)!

Awesome. That is pretty healthy too, using only 1 tbsp of mayo. Thanks.

Yeah, it ain't too bad for ya.

I love making tortilla wraps with this stuff. It's one of them recipes that tastes better the next day.

Also, my advice is to break out the food processor so you can get the onions and peppers into real small pieces.
