DIRECTIONS

1.

Using green leaf lettuce, separate leaves, rinse the leaves well, under cool, running water, and drain thoroughly.

Cover and refrigerate until ready for assembly.

CCP: Hold under refrigeration (41 degrees F or lower) until ready for assembly.

2.

FRUIT:

  • Rinse the fruit under cool, running water and drain it thoroughly.
  • Dice the apples into ½-inch pieces. If needed, use lemon juice, a mix of lemon juice and pineapple juice or other product to keep apple slices from turning brown.
  • Peel the melons and cut them into bite size pieces.
  • Slice each kiwifruit into six slices.
  • Starting at the more narrow end of each strawberry, cut vertically towards the stem until you are about ¼-inch from the stem. Gently press the stem to make the strawberry slices fan out from the base.
  • Mix the melons and apples together.

3.

TO ASSEMBLE CHICKEN SALAD SANDWICH:

  • Chop the eggs.
  • Combine the eggs, chicken, celery, pickle relish, pepper, dry mustard, and ¾ cup of mayonnaise. Mix the ingredients lightly until well blended.
  • Portion the chicken salad with a 4 ounce spoodle or #8 scoop (½ cup serving) on 1 slice of bread.
  • Top the sandwich with a second slice of bread.

  • Cut each sandwich into quarters (four equal pieces).

Cover and place the sandwiches under refrigeration until ready for combo assembly and service.

See MRS recipe 606 (Chicken Salad) for more detailed instructions and pictures.

4.

TO ASSEMBLE PIMENTO CHEESE SANDWICH:

  • Combine the shredded cheese, ½ cup of mayonnaise, and pimento.
  • Mix the ingredients lightly until well they are blended.
  • Portion the pimento cheese with a #12 scoop (1/3 cup) on 1 slice of bread.
  • Top the sandwich with a second slice of bread.
  • Cut each sandwich into quarters (four equal pieces).

Cover and place the sandwiches under refrigeration until ready for combo assembly and service.

Production Notes

Use USDA Foods products when available.
Refer to USDA FNS Food Buying Guide for School Meal Programs for quantities to purchase if different ingredients are used.
If changes are made in ingredients, check crediting information and re-calculate the nutrition analysis.

Miscellaneous Notes

Mayonnaise is listed twice as an ingredient because it is used in different amounts in the two different sandwiches.
