Sweet Onion Chicken Salad Sandwich

My new favorite sandwich, I do declare.

This Sweet Onion Chicken Salad Sandwich is soooooo incredibly yummy that I had to make it again & again just to take pictures – the first time we ate it all up before I could snap any pics whatsoever! Hubs loved it, I loved it, & the kiddos couldn’t get enough of it! Everyone approves – that’s a small victory in my book :)

It’s a basic chicken salad sandwich all fancied up for ya. The flavor marriage of rye bread, tarragon, lemon, and arugula perfectly meshed with the mayo and Greek yogurt dressing, oh its glorious harmony.
