chicken salad for sandwiches

I think out of all the ways you can make sandwiches like, tuna salad and such, chicken is my favorite. This is the last recipe that I got out of that old Southern Living magazine. Instead of the "dill" pickle relish I used "sweet" pickle relish. And the original recipe called for swiss cheese but I just couldn't bring myself to take away from the classic flavor of chicken salad by using cheese.
