Strudel sandwiches

This recipe is so easy to do. If you’re looking for a fun and easy chicken sandwich recipe, here it is. These chicken sandwiches can be served with a lunch, a tea, or for a casual get-together.

One nice thing about this recipe is that you can substitute ingredients for whatever left-over raw vegetables you have in the fridge:  broccoli, carrots, zucchini, squash, cauliflower, cabbage, etc. Using ingredients in this way helps use up items in your refrigerator. You know what your family likes, so fix the chicken sandwiches accordingly.

Variety

You can also substitute other meat for the chicken. I’ve used ham, turkey, and bacon. When I use ham, I use swiss or mozzarella cheese instead of cheddar. You will find that some vegetables go better with some meats than others. Tweak it to suit yourself or your family.

Serve these chicken sandwiches when you need a light, substantial lunch. Or when you need a little pick-me-up that is not too heavy or substantial.

One way to make this recipe easy to to do what you can ahead. Your ingredients can be ready to go a day or two ahead. When you are ready to make these chicken strudel sandwiches, all you will need to do is assemble them. You can also assemble the sandwiches several hours ahead and then bake them when you’re ready to serve them.

Truth of the matter is, it’s been a while since I’ve made these. I’m reposting this recipe from seven years ago, and it’s high-time I make these chicken strudel sandwiches again!
