Recipes

Several of you have asked for the coleslaw and grape salad recipes....

Grape Salad

1 block cream cheese (8 ounces)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup sugar
1 bunch grapes (a BIG bunch)
1 bag chopped pecans

Wash and dry the grapes thoroughly.  Pull all the stems off.  Beat the cream cheese, sour cream and sugar with a hand mixer.  Then add the grapes and mix.  Sprinkle pecans on top.  Chill.

Oriental Coleslaw

DRESSING:


4 1/2 tbsp. vinegar (I use apple cider vinegar, but distilled white works fine)
3 tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. oil
Salt and pepper
Flavor packet from Top Ramen noodles (chicken flavor)

SALAD:


1 pkg. cole slaw mix
1/2 c. toasted almonds
1/2 c. green onions
3 tbsp. sesame seeds
1 pkg. dry Top Ramen noodles, crushed

This salad needs to be put together at the last minute to make sure that everything is crunchy. Toss the salad ingredients first and then toss with the dressing. Serve immediately.

Enjoy!
