I am looking for a recipe that I used to make all the time..The problem is, I can't find it and can't remember what it is called. I want to say it had, at least, 7 items included. They included lettuce, broccoli, onions and carrots. It is at least 4 years old. And it goes onto the Simple Additions Lrg Square Platter. Does anyone have this recipe??

1/4 cup water

1 cup Italian dressing

1 ounce freshly grated Parmesan cheese
