Mandarin Pasta SaladI posted the recipe a while back and I've also seen it as an attachment, so if you search on it you'll probably find it. I have a question for those of you that do it at shows. When you add the onion soup mix and let it reconstitute, do you strain the dressing or just dump it in? I personally can't stand the onion bits, so I've been straining it.

Thanks!

What does the Pasta Salad taste like? I hear everyone raving, but... the onion soup mix part turns me off! Isn't it too salty or something? I have the recipe.. I just am afraid to try it because it sounds weird.

Try It You'll Like It!!!:D :D :D
Also you are not adding salt & nothing else has salt in it, except for the soup mix. I like to add extra orange juice & less vinegar. ( actually I have been getting small tangerines or clementines & using them with the citrus press ) I just love using that.:D
 
I've been making the Spinach/Strawberry salad (Casual Cooking - i think). I'm substituting splenda for sugar in the poppyseed dressing. Wonderful!! It's been a huge hit! With that I've made the Rasberry Lemonade in the quick stir pitcher.

I tried a new recipe last week it was found in the casual cookbook . It was the italian salad pizza. Use boboli crust . there is 10 min of bake time but do that early with host to melt the parm as it suggests. Turn the oven off and prep for the show. Not only will it be cool when guests arrive but the smell of bread will be a heavenly scent. The pizza by the way, is delicious!
