The "Bomb" Chicken Salad Sandwiches with Grapes

Just made this today for lunch and tried a little because it's only 9am. We are putting it in pita's with lettuce for lunch. It was by far better than I expected. YUM! I had to hurry and put it somewhere I wouldn't lose it. So I'm posting for your enjoyment. I got it off of food.com.

Croissant Chicken Salad Sandwich

6 -8 plain croissants
3 cups cubed poached cooked chicken
1 1/2 cups grapes, sliced in half
4 -5 diced spring onions
2 stalks celery, diced
8 fresh basil leaves, minced
3/4-1 cup mayonnaise or 3/4-1 cup Miracle Whip
1/2 cup roughly chopped cashews (or sliced almonds if you prefer)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper
lettuce leaf, to dress the sandwiches
