A friend of mine brought these to a party. I fell in love with not only the taste, but with how easy and relatively inexpensive they are to make, not to mention at just how quick they are to assemble! I've made these using leftover chicken breasts as well as already made store bought chicken salad. Small phyllo cups come 12 to a box for about 2 dollars. I've used slivered almonds on top and also chives. These are also cute for when the gals get together for "girl time", or a little girls "Birthday Tea Party". So versatile and fun!
