If you're planning a picnic, consider taking these sandwiches along. This recipe is adapted from "Anna Maria's Housekeeper," by Mrs. S.D. Power, 1884. Our Victorian friends loved them!
Chicken Salad Sandwiches
1 pound cold cooked chicken (about 2 boneless breasts)
6 tablespoons chopped parsley
1/4 cup mayonnaise
Salt, pepper
8 slices homemade bread
Chop chicken very fine, or mince. Place chicken in bowl and mix in parsley and just enough mayonnaise to moisten mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Slice bread very thin. Make sandwiches, wrap each in plastic wrap, then in paper napkin and tie with ribbon. Makes 4 sandwiches.
