Gruner Salad Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Mix and boil one minute; and let cool in refrigerator before putting on cabbage. HINT: I usually don't use this much dressing, in fact you only need maybe 1/3 to 1/2 the recipe, but I wanted to put the correct recipe in case you were making it for a large crowd.
• 2. TOPPING: Preheat oven to 350 degrees: 1 package ramen noodles {MINUS the seasoning packet} 2 tablespoons almond slices 2 tablespoons sesame seeds 2 tablespoons margarine
• 3. Melt the margarine and add the sesame seeds, almonds, and noodles. Brown in the oven at 350 degrees stirring every 10 minutes for thirty minutes.
• 4. Salad: one head of napa cabbage, chopped two green onions, chopped just before serving, combine salad with 1/3 cup of dressing, and top with topping. Delicious! Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium heat.
• In a blender, combine the garlic, lemon juice and Dijon mustard. Drizzle in 3/4 cup olive oil to emulsify. Add the Parmesan and pulse.
• Gently toss the hearts of romaine in remaining olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2 minutes, until grill marks appear and the romaine becomes wilted.
• Remove the lettuce to a cutting board and cut into 2-inch wide strips. Place in a bowl and drizzle with the dressing. Toss to coat and serve warm. Garnish with the shaved Parmesan.

Steps:

• Mix collard greens, kale, romaine, cabbage, pear, onion, orange bell pepper, avocado, carrot, tomatoes, walnuts, and raisins together in a large bowl.
• Combine olive oil, vinegar, honey, oregano, chili powder, mustard, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a glass jar with a lid. Cover jar with lid and shake vigorously until dressing is well mixed. Pour dressing over salad; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Wash grapes in a colander under running water, and remove all stems. Place in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, stir together the cream cheese and marshmallow creme until smooth and creamy. Pour the mixture over the grapes. Using a rubber spatula or large serving spoon, fold the mixture into the grapes until well coated. Fold in the almonds.
• This salad may be served immediately, or covered and refrigerated for 1 hour to set slightly, and to allow flavors to blend.
