My family did not enjoy this at all. I thought the blue cheese was overpowering.

These were just ok. The flavor combination was good but it wasn't outstanding. The sandwiches were very messy. I also thought the ratio of chicken to cheese and apple was off. I tried with less chicken and more apple and cheese a second time and thought it was better.
