This chicken salad is like nothing you&#8217;ve tried before. It&#8217;s untraditional and amazing. <\/p>\n<p>The sandwich is perfectly balanced with crispy cabbage, savory chopped chicken, and crunchy slivered almonds. Mixed with the tangy and slightly spicy carrot ginger dressing takes this chicken salad to a whole new level. The dressing alone is fantastic. Great for a picnic&#8230; if you decide you want to share.<\/p>\n<p>An <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/main-course\/main-course-sandwiches\/onion-dip-grilled-cheese-sandwich.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Onion Dip Grilled Cheese Sandwich<\/a> sounds unusual, but <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/Hidemi\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hidemi Walsh<\/a> (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/members\/browse\/list?search=Plainfield%2C+IN\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Plainfield, IN<\/a>) fused two totally different recipes into one yummy sandwich. She originally came up with the concept by combining ingredients her husband loved and then put her tasty spin on things.<\/p>\n<p>Hidemi makes a quick onion dip spread by blending cream cheese, Parmesan and onions &#8211; it&#8217;s delicious! Mixed with the spinach, tomato, bacon and melted cheddar cheese, it makes for a savory grilled cheese.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/honeybeebaby\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Michelle Cater<\/a> (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/members\/browse\/list?search=Paradise%2C+TX\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paradise, TX<\/a>) makes <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/main-course\/chicken\/cool-cucumber-sandwiches.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cool Cucumber Sandwiches<\/a> that has a few odd ingredients to create one fantastic sandwich.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I ate lunch at a restaurant called The Mustard Seed and they had a great tuna sandwiches with grapes in it,&#8221; shares Michelle. &#8220;I loved it so I came home and added my favorite ingredients to make it just perfect.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Well, who would have thought dill pickles with grapes would be so good! Unusual for sure but mighty tasty. Michelle says you can make these with tuna or chicken. I tried it with tuna and loved the combination of flavors and textures. I bet it would be just as good with chicken.

The bread is crisp and holds in all the warm filling of this amazing sandwich. It&#8217;s quite filling! Julie also mentions you can cut these into smaller pieces for an appetizer&#8230; I will definitely be doing that the next time I make this.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I love epic and over the top sandwiches, and this was one fun sandwich I came up with to change up our pulled pork,&#8221; reveals <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/noellemyers\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Noelle Myers<\/a>. &#8220;I love the zesty barbecue sauce with the creamy, spicy mac and cheese on top.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/main-course\/sandwiches\/jacked-up-mac-and-que.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Jacked Up Mac and &#8216;Que<\/a> is one amped up sandwich! The pulled pork&#8217;s kicking and super flavorful. The mac and cheese is so creamy and compliments the spice from the pork. The pork rinds on top are a surprise and add some crunch. This is a three napkin sandwich, so make sure to have a few handy.<\/p>\n<p>Bye bye boring sandwiches, there is nothing basic about these mouthwatering recipes.
