Very Strawberry Salad
My neighbor makes a killer salad, and I don't really get that excited about salad. I've had her Summer Salad several times and each time it makes me re-evaluate my NO salad policy. Okay, so salads aren't really that bad, but they're tedious...and leafy. So, while Anne's salad is still the tops, I've altered mine a bit, making it easier for bulk production: think summer pot luck assignment. I cut the ingredient list in half and things like getting out a frying pan to crumble bacon were definietly out, but feel free to improvise. What's left is the basic goodess without much work. (That's pretty much my motto these days.) It really is amazing, and thanks, Anne, for all the salads over the years. -Sierra |

Problems: Too much onion- salad dressing needs to taste a little stronger than you think because it mellows out when tossed in a salad; however, red onion is powerful already, so go easy on the onion and you'll be glad you did. If you are not fond of onion to begin with, use green onion for a milder version. |
