Morning tea and birthday parties are often over-run with sweet treats. These chicken sandwiches provide an elegant savoury contrast!

Ingredients

• 8 slices fresh white bread
• 1½ cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken breast
• ½ cup whole-egg mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons sage, chopped
• cup of shredded lettuce (optional)

Method

Combine chicken, mayonnaise and herbs, spread on four slices of bread.

• For chicken points, top with the remaining bread slices, slice the crusts off and cut each sandwich into four points (triangles).
• Or, for school lunches, add shredded lettuce, top with the remaining bread slices and cut in half whichever way your kid likes their sandwiches!
