    That really sounds good.
    Thank you.
    When I make Oriental salads I often add some broccoli slaw or cabbage slaw from the produce dept for added veggies. You usually don't need to increase the dressing.

    I don't own any.... after a bunny chasing experience at my fiance's house this summer I probably never will! :laugh: His family has..... well... a lot.

    They are cute but I do have to admit we have said no to bunnies plenty of times in the past.

    My only complaint is that I ran out of the clear sleeves (for regular size sheets of paper) to put my recipes in when I put them in my notebook. :bigsmile:

    I know how that goes.
    I have thousands of recipes, more health focused/directed since that pertains to here.
    I don't even print them anymore cause there are so many. Which means I lose a lot of em cause I forget to copy them into Word.

    I don't DO "diet" food... so I find recipes so people can eat healthy and still have variety. It's a hobby and a service (which I LOVE to offer), if it's not wanted I can keep em to myself. (Sorry kinda annoyed... not by you guys).

    Well please continue to share your recipes for those of us who do appreciate them. I'm sure there are a lot of others who appreciate your (and others) recipes but just don't post. :flowerforyou:
