I’ve been looking online to find out what to do with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and also I assume you use the dressing at the end, but it doesn’t say what to do with the dressing either. Several links all go to the same website. ( yes, I also found the recipe on the back of Sunny select cornflakes box, good way to use up the last of the Corn flakes )
