Yummy! I made this for some family that stopped in for lunch. Everyone loved it - even my husband who doesn't care for mayo. It was even good the next day as leftovers. This is a keeper.07/15/08

I love this and have made several times but with shredded chicken. If you like sweet/savory combos, you will love this recipe. Also, the pumpernickel really makes it special. Only changes were the chicken and salted cashews instead of unsalted.05/08/08
