Blueberry Poppyseed Chicken Croissant Sandwich
Today we’ve gone full picnic vibe and put our delectable new Blueberry Poppyseed Salad into a soft, buttery croissant sandwich. It’s one of our most festive Salad Kits, with leafy green spinach, salty feta cheese, and crunchy red cabbage and shaved carrots that have been sweetened up with a berry poppyseed dressing and—yes, you read the package right—blueberry lemon scone crouton crumbles. (What WILL we think of next?) Enjoy leafy greens with a touch of decadence!

Croissant creations for elegant eating
We love salad, and we love indulgence. We make a couple of salads with Sea Salt Croissant Croutons (the Honey Apple and the Honey Balsamic), but this is the first time we’ve put a salad into a croissant. A great idea at long last, since a croissant sandwich is one of the most delicious, classic things ever. Meaning, when you make a croissant sandwich with one of our delicious salads plus a protein, you get the most delicious thing ever, squared.
A daytime staple the world over, a croissant sandwich is a perfectly packable meal for a picnic. This one covers all the bases: greens, fruit, protein, and grains. Even if you’re not picnicking, it’s got the fresh fruit vibes of a pleasant midday nosh.
The croissant certainly elevates the look from your standard sandwich, and these would make a delightful treat at a brunch party, or look elegant served at a baby or bridal shower. Serve it with cut fruits or mixed berries (including blueberries, of course). For dessert, consider sticking to the theme with a blueberry tart or blueberry muffins.
