I tried a new salad recipe over the holidays and I just love it. For now, it’s my favorite salad recipe until I try another new one. Everything is back to normal at the Lloyd home. Pa Lloyd even took down the outdoor Christmas lights! I suggested he wait for when it warms up, but that would have been too easy. It would have been just a couple of days too! I went to the library and stocked up with some reading material, so I am already to snuggle in for the duration! We are now taking care of our little precious great-granddaughter, Lydia. For two days one week and one day the next, she is so much fun. It takes two of us to care for one bitty little girl, but we love doing it.
Mandarin Pasto Spinach Salad with Teriyaki Dressing 8 oz. bow tie pasta ( half a box) 4 cups spinach leaves ( I used half a bag) 1/2 cup craisins 1/2 cup cashews 1- 4 oz. can mandarin oranges, drained 1/4 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped Dressing: 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce 1/3 cup rice wine vinegar 1/2 tsp. garlic powder 1/2 tsp. onion powder 1/4 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 1 Tablespoon sugar 1/2 cup oil, such as canola or olive oil Cook pasta according to package instructions.Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside. While pasta is boiling, prepare the dressing. In a jar combine all dressing ingredients, cover and shake to combine. Chill until ready to use. In large bowl toss together pasta, spinach, craisins, nuts, oranges and cilantro. Just before serving, pour dressing over salad, toss and serve. Stay warm and safe and have a good week!

I'm very interested in your new salad recipe. As a vegan, it's not easy to look for new recipes over the internet. I try to search hard for some tasty and unique salad recipes over the net. I've come to browse a ton of websites over the course of time for the past few days. I haven't seen the recipe that I'm craving for yet, but I hope that your recipe changes my mind. 1/29/2018 07:27:42 pm
Thank you for sharing that delicious recipe. I am interested in making pasta nowadays because I am planning on opening a restaurant and one my chef is my best friend. She is a good cook who has a specialty to pasta and I am so jealous of her. I really love to learn about how to cook. I am so glad that I was able to see your post and I am going to apply it. I wish that you could post more recipe of yours. Leave a Reply. |
