Dolores Brignac's family was skeptical the first time she served this unusual salad-but one taste convinced them it was a winner. Now when I bring it out, everyone digs in and cleans their plates, she pens from Braithwaite, Louisiana. Ingredients:
1 package (3 ounces) ramen noodles |
1 cup chopped walnuts |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
6 cups torn romaine |
4 cups broccoli florets |
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved |
4 green onions, sliced |
dressing: |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/4 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
4-1/2 teaspoons soy sauce |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Break noodles into small pieces (save seasoning envelope for another use). In a skillet over medium heat, saute noodles and walnuts in butter for 5-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool.
2. In a large salad bowl, combine the romaine, broccoli, tomatoes and onions. Place dressing ingredients in a blender or food processor; cover and process until sugar is dissolved. Add dressing and noodle mixture to salad; toss to coat. Serve with a slotted spoon. Yield: 14-16 servings.
