I am definitely going to have to go check out that olive sourdough. That looks amazing!
I’m generally not a fan of apples, but your chicken salad recipe doesn’t sound bad at all. I know my kids will love this and I usually have so much leftover chicken to deal with. Putting this in the file for lunches. Thank you!
