Cole Slaw

I'm sure you all have made a salad or a slaw similar to this but I found this one and it was so easy and so good!!  It's one of Paula Deen's receipes so you know it's good and probably fattening.   We had it with Chicken Pot Pie one night and then with Lasagna and it was great with both.  Donna
 
Cole Slaw
 
2 bags of Ramen Noodle soup in Oriental
3/4  stick butter
1/4 cup slivered almonds
2 bags of traditional cole slaw (pre-packaged)
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
chopped green onion, for garnish
 
Dressing Mix
 
3/4 cup conola oil
1/2 cup brown sugar (light, packed)
1/4 cup apple cider vineger
1 ramen noodle seasoning packet (oriental)
 
Put ramen noodles in a bag and crush them with rolling pin while melting butter in large skillet over low/medium heat.  Add crushed noodles and slivered almonds to the skillet and saute, stirring occasionally (keep temp. at low/medium heat). Meanwhile whisk together all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.  Place slaw into bowl and toss with the noodles and almonds and sunflower seeds.  Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat.  Garnish with green onions. 
 
I would not toss this all together until you are ready to serve.

Pepper Penne by Ashley

Oh My!!  We had this tonight for dinner.  All of the boys ate it, including Gray who is 1 and Sam who usually only eats the bread for dinner.  I loved it and it was so easy!  Enjoy!!!   Ingredients:   1 package of penne pasta (I used whole grain) 1/2 t. rosemary 2 packages of sliced pepperoni , halved ( I used 1 package and it seemed to be plenty) 1/4 c. pepperocini (omit if too spicy for kids, but it wasn't really spicy with it.  I will probably use more than 1/4 next time) 1 jar roasted red bell pepper, drained and chopped 3 1/2 c. boiling water 1/2 c. whipping cream (I used milk) 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese   Directions:   In a large pot, layer pasta, rosemary, pepperoni, pepperocini, and roasted red pepper.   Add water and bring to a boil.   Reduce heat, cover, and let simmer until pasta is tender.   Add cream and cheese.  Toss to coat.

So here ya go: Green Onions 2 8oz. blocks of cream cheese 2 cans chili with beans Shredded Cheddar Cheese Mix together cream cheese and chili with beans. Pour in the bottom of 9x13 dish. Generously sprinkle cheese on top. Add chopped green onions onto cheese. Put in oven on 350 until cheese is melted. Serve with chips of your choice.

Simple Cole Slaw by Ashley

I love coleslaw, all different kinds, but I have never made it before. A girl that I don't know has a recipe blog that I go to often and I got this recipe from her. I loved that it said "simple". Simple I can do. *my Dad loves coleslaw as well, but is kind of a coleslaw snob and he really liked it. *i served it with homemade sloppy joes and tater tots :) Ingredients: 1/3 cup canola-based mayonnaise ( I am sure you can use any kind of mayo, but this is better for you.) 1 and 1/2 teaspoons sugar 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard 3 cups packaged cabbage and carrot coleslaw Directions: Combine mayo, sugar, pepper, salt, and dry mustard with a whisk. Add coleslaw and toss.
