Okay, here we go…….The day before, combine crust ingredients; mix lightly, spread half of crust mixture in buttered 9×13 pan. In bowl, combine chicken, onion, celery, salad dressing and salt. Spread chicken mixture over bottom crust. Top with reserved crust mixture. Beat eggs and milk together. Pour over all. Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
