BY Chicken Salad Baguette Recipe
This is one big chicken salad baguette, so why not divide it into three, creating a sandwich for the kids lunch box or a quick snack - served with ready salted potato chips.
Take a bulky crisp and crunchy fresh baguette from the bakery, cut it enough to create a lid and fill it up with roast chicken and salad.
To make it you'll need spoonfuls of mayonnaise and on the top and bottom side. Then build the sandwich with chicken, tomato, red onion, cucumber and lettuce.
You can then close it up and divide it evenly into three portions. To make a real meal from the baguette serve it with Walkers ready salted potato chips.
