Has anyone tried to make a lower cal version of this recipe?
Make a French dressing by combining salt, pepper, mustard, oil, and vinegar in a screw-topped jar. Shake well. Blanch leeks in boiling salted water for 5 minutes.
Cut up cauliflower and broccoli and sliced carrots in bowl. Pour dressing over vegetables and serve.
Mix first 5 ingredients together and chill well. Mix last 4 ingredients together and chill well. Crumple pieces of foil in bottom of salad bowl so dressing can drain.
For salad, drain the beans, corn, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, pimentos, and mushrooms. Then combine all ingredients.
Cook veggies according to package directions. Combine veggies and cooked chicken; toss with sweet and sour sauce.
Mix all the veggies together. The mix the dressing ingredients and pour over the vegetables.
Blend together sugar, salad oil and white vinegar and add to vegetables. This salad is best if you let stand in refrigerator a couple days before serving.
We eat a lot of lettuce type salads, and my husband prefers romaine lettuce to anything else. This one is tangy and good.
I love the ranch dressing and the combination of veggies in this recipe, but I definitely do not use the lima or butter beans that are called for. You can make it to your own taste, but I prefer to do without.
