Yesterday, as it was the Canonization of Saints Pope John Paul II and John XXIII, I asked my husband what if he had any requests for his feast day dinner. He suggested Chicken Salad sandwiches stuffed in pita pocket bread. MMM... Perfect. I had spotted a one with a Mexican flair that I wanted to try...perfect opportunity. I served with sweet potato fries. Even though I just ate mine without the bread, it was super tasty. He enjoyed them. Saint John Paul II and Saint John XXIII, pray for us!
