TOSSED SALAD WITH CARROT DRESSING

This is a new recipe I tried this weekend and it was a hit!  Everyone loved it.

Start with 3/4 cup red wine vinegar                        Pour into a food processor or blender.

Add 1 cup sugar.  (You could easily cut down the sugar and it will still be sweet enough)

Cut up 2 stalks of celery, 1 small onion and 1 carrot into large chunks.  Add to processor.

Add about 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Now process until the mixture is smooth.    Add oil in a steady stream and process until well mixed and all chunks are gone.

Pour dressing into a jar and refrigerate until you are ready to serve.  This makes three cups of dressing. 

 

Now you need to assemble the salad ingredients.

1/2 cup craisins, 1/2 cup shredded cheese, 1/2 cup chow mein noodles. 

I also added grape tomatoes and sliced cucumbers.

Oh and I also added 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.

Toss salad ingredients together and pour on dressing until you think it has enough.
