When I saw the title of this recipe I was hooked, but then I saw the ingredients in this recipe and was not so sure. Carrots and celery in a sandwich, did not seem like it would taste good. I felt the crunchiness would stand out too much with the chicken and cheese.
Even though I do not like to admit when I am wrong, I was wrong about this. The carrots and celery did not stand out at all. They just blended right in to this delicious sandwich.
