Sally's Slaw Salad

 This is a recipe I got from my mother-in-law, Sally.  

This is Sally...isn't she cute?  She is so pretty and sweet.

 Anyhow, she planned a girls day for us a few summers ago and made this for lunch.  
I make it several times every summer.  It's quick, easy, light and yummy!

You will need:
1 package cole slaw
1 package broccoli slaw

 In case you have never seen broccoli slaw, you can see what it looks like next to the cole slaw.  

1 package chicken Top Ramen noodles, uncooked, crumbled well
1 can cooked chicken (or I like using fresh, grilled chicken breasts)
1/2  to 1 cup slivered almonds
1/2-1 cups chow mien noodles

Toss together.  

In a separate bowl, mix together:
1/2 cup rice vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 packet Top Ramen seasoning, chicken flavor

Pour over salad and stir till coated.  
Yum!

Christmas Salad

I know it's too early to think about Christmas but whenever I make this salad the colors remind me of that time of year. (And it is a fancier salad that I bring to a lot of holiday parties!) It is SO good!!

You will need:
1 bundle fresh spinach leaves (I remove the stems, yuck)
1 head of iceberg lettuce
1 bundle of romaine lettuce
1 small cont. plain feta cheese
1 cup craisins
1 cup chopped glazed (candied) walnuts
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1 bottle Brianna's poppy seed dressing

Wash all lettuce and dry. Chop into bites sizes pieces and toss together in large bowl. Crumble feta cheese onto salad. Add craisins, walnuts and onions. Toss together. Add a bit more of everything to decorate the top of salad. Serve with poppy seed dressing.

It feed a crowd and it's delicious! Enjoy!
