1. In a medium bowl, combine filling ingredients- set aside.
2. In a small bowl combine dressing, mix well.
3. Stir dressing into filling bowl.

6. Tip for brown bagging, place prepared mixture in a small container, keep chilled till ready to assemble, makes for a fresh tasting sandwich instead of the fast food route.
