Easy salad dinner

Woof Ridge · 2004-01-12T10:36:58+00:00

Had a successful, simple, salad dinner last night? Something based on Kake's cauliflower salad: http://tinyurl.com/sj1m where I steamed the veg first, omitted the garlic and coriander leaf, added the salt to the dressing and then substituted plain old curry powder for garam masala. Changed it completely, now that I think about it, but got the inspiration from Kake's recipe 🙂 Peeled sweet potatoes, and chopped into bite sized pieces, roasted at 450 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20 minutes, then mixed with dried chopped cranberries, chopped walnuts, and a dressing of lemon juice, orange juice, olive oil, and a bit of rice vinegar. I had this at a friends, and think she got it from a cookbook, but again I made up my version. Bagged washed green salad (Italian variety) with a dressing of 1 part soy sauce, 1 part rice vinegar, some crushed garlic, and a bit of sweetener. I'd have preferred rice syrup, but didn't have any, so I used honey. I'd been trying to duplicate the dressing I've had at Sunflower, a veg restaurant in Vienna, VA, outside Washington, DC, and I think I did, but I had to add garlic, since I hadn't put any in the other dishes! I made the first two salads and let them marinate for about 3 hours, and threw together the third (well, I opened the bag and dumped it in a bowl) at dinnertime. Woof

No disrespect to Woof Ridge who I'm sure is an excellent cook, but this is my complaint as well. A
lot of the vegan recipes here are well beyond my skills, not to mention my patients. I'll give this
one another go tomorrow when I've calmed down a bit. Looks like I'll be eating out again tonight,
(at the chippy). ;-)

Peeled sweet potatoes, and chopped into bite sized pieces,
"bite sized"?? Y'mean chips?
