Crunchy Turkey Salad Sandwich

So I've only had a small bite of this to taste-test it, but even that was enough to be able to tell that this is delicious. I'm actually more of a chicken/turkey salad purist and don't really enjoy it as much on bread, but I think this would be a good one on bread, if that's your preference. Definitely a good summer meal with the whole no cooking thing...

Edited to add: I found the turkey and cheese chunks to be a little overwhelming at the size I had cut them, so I'm going to make sure to cut them much smaller next time. This is also definitely better after it's sat a bit and the flavors were allowed to blend a little more.

1 1/4 pounds smoked turkey breast, diced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup chopped scallions
3/4 cup chopped celery
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
1 cup seedless red grapes, cut in half
8 ounces provolone cheese, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped (optional)
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
Soft whole-grain sandwich bread, for serving


Place the turkey in a medium mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the remaining ingredients (except the bread) and combine. Serve on sandwich bread.
