My whole family loves this dish! Especially in the summer, when the Texas heat makes it hard to find meals that are both filling and refreshing, this one fits the bill. While it's got healthy fresh veggies, it IS NOT a diet meal - far from it! But it's so, so good!
Adjusts easily for your tastes, and the number of folks you need to serve.
Dressing:
1 3/4 cups Mayonnaise (I prefer Kraft for the texture)
1/4 cup prepared Mustard
1/4 cup Honey
2 teaspoons Paprika
Mix together until blended, adjusting to taste...then serve. It stores well, but we rarely have much left over.
Salad: (adjust portions and ingredients to taste)
Iceberg Lettuce, chopped
1 lg. ripe tomato, diced
1 cucumber, diced
3 Green onions (or scallions) diced
1 cup of cubed Cheddar Cheese
2 boiled eggs, sliced (or 1 per plate)
4 strips of fried bacon, crumbled (2 per plate)
Prepare salads in individual plates or bowls; adding any ingredients your family likes.
Fried Chicken:
Chicken (1 breast or 3 tenders per person)
1/2 cup Ranch dressing
1 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp Cumin
Cut chicken into bite size pieces, then toss with Ranch dressing. Dredge into flour and spice mixture and fry in hot oil until golden brown. Drain on paper towel. Serve immediately on top of salad and drizzle with Honey Mustard Dressing.
YUM!
Almost as complicated as Thanksgiving dinner, but well worth the effort!
Thanks for posting this. I am going to make it during summer. I like to make lots of salads then ;)
