Pineapple Chicken Salad Sandwiches are a great way to make the traditional chicken salad but with a great twist. You might even call it Hawaiian chicken salad because of the deliciously sweet pineapple flavor.
These are great for when you want a quick lunch or a great recipe to use when you have leftover chicken you want to use up and make for the perfect summer meal.
Plus who doesn’t love those wonderfully buttery croissants that you serve the tasty chicken mixture on?
However, if you are looking for a healthier version, you can always serve this fifteen-minute pineapple chicken salad over a bed of lettuce leaves and enjoy it that way too!
