We loved this salad. The kids ate the noodles and wouldn't stop until it was gone - I couldn't get them to try the cucumbers, but that was okay cuz Jeff, Camrie & I ate what they wouldn't :) We really liked it and would love it again. Perfect amount.
So Beck, where did this recipe come from? I remember it from the "olden days". And coincidently, my friend Bonnie made it for me a couple of weeks ago, she got the recipe from the paper.
Anyways, loved it and I ate all the leftovers, without a slotted spoon! Definitely a repeat and perfect amount! (I bet it would go great with stuffed peppers)
yep, newspaper.
Becky- what an awesome idea!!! Sorry...being snoopy on your blog! Does it ever become an issue with your family not liking something that another family has brought?
Becky, I loved this salad!!! It was so good. This would have been great by itself, with a roll or something. Me, Trevor and Rylee were all literally fighting over the end of it! Thanks it was a great dinner and the perfect amounts!
hi, beckey. it's not snooping, that's why I have a link to it! I'm glad you dropped by! it is a wonderful group and is working out just right. I think there are issues with kids not liking things, but it's actually a novelty that someone else made dinner, so i think kids are actually more likely to try it! my fellow groupies would probably agree...
