Cabbage Ramen Salad


Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/2 package slivered almonds
1/2 cabbage
4 chopped green onions
1 package ramen noodles (chicken flavor)

Dressing: Ramen noodles chicken flavoring
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup oil
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons vinegar
1 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Cut up chicken breasts into bite size pieces. I just bought the rotisserie chicken from the store that was already cooked to make things easier for me. Cut the cabbage up into bite size pieces as well. Broil the sesame seeds and almonds til golden brown. Do them seperate from each other because the sesame's brown quicker. Crush the ramen noodles til they are in small pieces. Combine all the salad ingredients together in a large bowl. Add together in a seperate bowl all the dressing ingredients and then dump over salad.

Verdict:

This is a perfect summer salad! And it adds variety because it's a cabbage salad! It makes tons and the leftovers are even better then when it's freshly made. My cute husband Scott actually made this one because I ran out of time before I went to work! What a good man!

Grilled Turkey and Swiss


Ingredients:

Turkey deli meat
sliced swiss cheese
submarine rolls

Directions:

On a large greased griddle or skillet lay out several pieces of deli meat in a stack.
Once one side is heated through, turn it over and add the cheese on top.
I put 2 slices on each stack of meat.
Cut sub rolls in half and spread some butter on them.
Place the rolls on the griddle as well to toast and warm up.
Once the cheese is melted add the meat to the rolls and enjoy.

Verdict:

I really enjoy this meal. I order it every time I need to eat at my work so I decided to try and make it at home. It turned out to be really easy, but I forgot to buy the extra's like tomatoes, lettuces, pickles.. oops! It was still good anyways! I served it with some delicious potato salad.
