Here's the recipe :<BR/><BR/>Vinagrette:<BR/>1/2 cup canola or other oil (I used canola/olive mix)<BR/>1/8 cup white wine vinegar <BR/>1/4 cup white sugar (or substitute)<BR/>1 tbsp soy sauce<BR/>Shake together & put in fridge<BR/><BR/>Dry mix/topping:<BR/>1/2 cup margarine or butter<BR/>1/2 cup slivered almonds<BR/>1/2 cup sesame seeds<BR/>1 pkg ramon or other noodles with spice mix (I used the vegetable flavored one)<BR/>1 crushed garlic clove<BR/><BR/>Melt margarine, stir fry garlic, sesame seeds & almonds. Add noodles, break them up with your hands &/or wooden spoon into small pieces, sprinkle in envelope of spice mix - you can store this in a tupperware container overnight & add to salad with dressing when ready to assemble salad<BR/><BR/>Salad : I used mixed greens, sliced red peppers, green onions & blanched snow peas. You can add other veggies if u like (shredded carrots, sliced mushrooms)Annie Ruokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06747672451031275814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679031882312384081.post-17126958019008185802007-06-10T22:46:00.000-04:002007-06-10T22:46:00.000-04:00I had no idea that my marinated eggplant, red pepp...I had no idea that my marinated eggplant, red pepper and mushroom salad has a fancy name.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-679031882312384081.post-29338654749131011702007-06-10T17:23:00.000-04:002007-06-10T17:23:00.000-04:00It was definitely a wonderful afternoon with lots ...It was definitely a wonderful afternoon with lots of yummy food.
