The only one I have made recently is large chunks of chicken and
pineapple, celery, water chestnuts, toasted almonds, crunchy
noodles (added at serving time) in dressing made of mayo, lemon
juice, chutney, and curry powder. I was just thinking if I did
this with smaller chunks of chicken and used crushed pineapple,
drained as well as possible, and no noodles, it might be possible
to transmogrify this into a sandwich filling. I find the normal
chicken salad sandwiches to be boring.
