Made for New Kids on the Block tag game. I cut the recipe in half for DH and I. I did toast the ramen noodles with the slivered almonds for more flavor. Since I toasted them together I just added them all together in the salad (we were going to eat it right away anyway). I also added a few more green onions (love onions) and added about 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil (since the salad is named Asian Slaw). Delicious! Definately a keeper in my Favorites of 2011. Thank you.

Although I am a US citizen, I have spent most of my adult life living outside of the States. I've raised my family all over the world - and I have to say that my four kids are pretty terrific!
I am always looking for recipes that only call for basic ingredients. Because I don't live in the US, I often can't find packages or this, or jars and cans of that, even certain spices can be tricky.
My favorite cookbooks are the New Joy of Cooking, and anything by Nigela Lawson.
My passions are cooking and eating - big surprise there.
I have no pet peeves, I don't keep any peeves around long enough to make them into pets.
I especially love baking, but I'm trying to get away from that - the carbs are starting to stick to my hips a little too easily.
I took a Sushi making course recently. It was a lot of fun; I now know that I need to GO OUT for Sushi, not make it myself.
