These BLT chicken salad sandwiches are a life saver when we are on the go. Often times in the summer months, we are chasing cows all over the mountain and have little resources when it comes to dinner. So, I started making these BLT chicken salad sandwiches to take with us.

Every time I make a new recipe, I have my family rate the recipe out of 10. By the time, these recipes make the blog, they’ve been tried and tested by some of my hardest tiny critics!

What Ingredients Are in BLT Chicken Salad Sandwiches?

  • Chicken – You can use any chicken that you would like for this. Chicken breasts or tenderloins are a great option or if you are short on time, you can use a rotisserie chicken.
  • Bacon – I cook an entire 1 lb. package of bacon.
  • Celery – Celery gives this salad a little crunch that is so yummy. If you do not like celery, feel free to leave it out.
  • Tomatoes – Most of the time when I make this recipe, I use grape tomatoes. I just think they have more flavor; however, you can also use a regular tomato and dice it into small pieces.
  • Croissants or Hard Rolls – I think that croissants or hard rolls pair the best with this BLT chicken salad.
