    This was really good! Tasted like fast food but didnt make me feel guilty! Lol I used leftover slow cooker chicken and shredded it. I also left out the ranch just because you can't even taste a teaspoon of it so why add the calories?? - 11/2/12

    I grilled up the chicken on my George Foreman too, but I used chicken tender meat. I just cut in half and had chunks of chicken instead of slices. Really yummy and so easy. I will definitely be making this again. - 10/2/09

    I made it with smoke turkey breast b/c that is what I had. I also didn't do the salad dressing on one slice b/c I didn't have it, but it was still really yummy. I'd consider it comfort food for sure! - 2/11/09

    Who is Rybolt15? Sorry but not everyone knows how much cholesterol per serving Chicken has in it. Especially the newbies. A simple It came from the chicken because would have sufficed.
    Thanks,
