Egg Noodle Salad

I used those short twisty looking egg noodles for the salad, because they were very cheap and affordable. You can make this ahead of time, but I find the avocado turns brown if it's not sprinkled with lemon juice, and I found lemon juice doesn't really go with this salad, taste wise.

This salad will be on my summer meal rotation so it was a contest keeper here! The salad made generous portions. The horseradish I used was so strong it was the only note at first, but after chilling everything blended & was terrific. My avocado was ripe so melded into the creamy dressing. The crunch from the water chestnuts added a highlight too. I think additional veggies would add color & only add to the awesome salad. Thank you for your entry & good luck in the contest!

I really liked this summer salad though i used tuna fish in broth instead of crab meat due to my allergy. But the recipe was so appealing that i could not resist trying it. It came out wonderfully! I will make this over and over again as it is a really nice summer dish. Thank you for this great recipe and good luck at the contest. It was my favorite this year.
