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.

Lite Frito Bandito by Ashley

I love making Chili this time of year and I don't know about you, but I always have so much leftover. This is a great way to change it up. My boys loved it. Obviously this is the healthier version from the hungry girl blog, which is what I ate, but for the boys I used real cheese. Either way it is good. Ingredients: 1/3 cup low-fat turkey or veggie chili ( I used my normal chili recipe which has extra lean beef in it.) 1 La Tortilla Factory Smart & Delicious Low Carb High Fiber Large Tortilla (or alternative below) 2 tbsp. shredded fat-free cheddar cheese 1/2 package Fritos Original Corn Chips 100 Calorie Pack (or other alternative below!) Optional: 2 tbsp. diced onion Directions: Place chili in a microwave-safe bowl, cover, and heat for 45 - 60 seconds, until hot. Set aside. Lay tortilla flat on a microwave-safe plate, and warm in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Spoon chili down the center of the tortilla. Cover the chili with cheese, and then top with Fritos. If you...

Mix it together. Add Salt and pepper. Leave all of this in the pot you cooked your noodles in and leave the heat on simmer. Here is where it gets tricky...you keep adding paremesean cheese, whipping cream, salt and pepper until you like the way it taste and the...
