ASIAN COLE SLAW
I am lazy and really I made a lot of food so I took the easy way out and bought a bag of pre-chopped slaw, broccoli slaw and carrots then I threw together the dressing and other parts but here is the whole recipe. I found it on line somewhere
5tblsp rice vinegar
5tblsp oil
5tblsp peanut butter
3tblsp soy sauce
2-3 minced garlic cloves
salt pepper and cayenne pepper to taste
Put all this in a covered dish or tupperware and shake until the peanut butter dissolves
head of green cabbage shredded
head of red cabbage shredded
a cup or so of shredded carrots
chopped green onion and cilantro to taste
mix all this in a bowl then toss with the dressing
SPINACH PASTA SALAD-
Warning, this is fucking delicious. Its absolutely possible to eat yourself into a coma, trust me.
1 lb tortellini - cooked and drained according to instructions- I used some dried cheese tortellini from my local market
Once you drain the pasta run it under cold water so it stops cooking, then put it into the final dish and toss with a smidge of oil so it doesn't stick together
10 oz spinach - about 3/4 of a bag of pre-washed stuff works, it will wilt a little once you dress it, before that it takes up a lot of space
2oz (or more, really MORE) tomato basil feta
1 small red onion chopped (I blanch mine, otherwise I'll get heart burn. Just throw it in to the pasta water for the last 30 seconds of cooking and drain with your pasta)
1 cup italian dressing (I like the good seasons package you mix yourself for this. Any zesty italian dressing would work too)
2 cloves garlic, crushed and chopped
juice of one whole lemon
black pepper to taste
one roma tomato chopped
Combine everything but the dressing, lemon and pepper. Mix together. Add remaining stuff, toss and chill for 2 hours or more.
oh man you made some good stuff before. whynchu make this for me?
