Avocado Chicken Salad

This is a fabulous recipe!
 I grew up with a Chicken Salad from a local deli in my hometown that I loved to put on bread as a sandwich. I wondered how this Avocado Chicken Salad would compare. It is very similar! And healthier! I haven't done much with avocados yet, but I think I will do more!
We doubled the recipe so it would last longer for lunches (and it was easier to measure out). I made my sandwich this afternoon with a toasted hoagie bun, the Avocado Chicken Salad, and tomato slice halves. Yum!!

Olive Garden Breadsticks (Homemade)

One of our favorite restaurants to visit is Olive Garden. I think just about everyone would agree that the breadsticks are the best part of that experience! We have tried many different recipes to replicate them, and this one comes the closest!

Here is a picture of how ours turned out:

Our girls helped make them, so they are a little weird looking...haha! (They are ages 4, 6, and 8.) 

This batch was made along with a homemade pizza that we love. On this occasion, it was our nephew's 9th birthday party, and he requested homemade pizza and breadsticks. It was a hit! Everybody enjoyed both, especially the breadsticks as soon as they were cool enough to eat straight from the oven! :-D

So get the kids involved, and have fun with it! They are delicious and well worth the wait!
