Chicken Pesto Sandwich
Chicken Pesto Sandwich! I have never been to Zupas before, but since it had changed my husband’s life, I thought I would look at recipes that claimed to be a copycat and then put my own twist on the sandwich. I love chicken sandwiches and I found a sandwich that makes me say “YUM”!
This might turn into my new favorite sandwich and I WILL make this over and over again.
