Description
I had to make this salad two days in a row. When I got home from work yesterday, my husband asked me where I’d hidden the leftovers from the night before because he wanted them for lunch. Well, I’d taken them with me for MY lunch — so I made another batch last night to go with our chili. The night before that I’d served it with shredded chicken Bobbie-Q (see my recipes) over mashed potatoes. There was a bit left over last night — and I made sure to leave it for my husband. I brought peanut butter & a cucumber for my lunch instead. sigh Anyway, if you do have any of this salad left, use it by the next day.
