Erik:

Glad you liked the recipe! Your versions are great — the shredded carrot salad looks so nice (especially the presentation on the lettuce with a lemon wedge)!

This was a wonderful recipe, everyone loved it and they are still talking about it. I put pictures of my renditions (or rather attempts) of this, your tasty carrot salad, and some other dishes on a web page to share: http://erik.missyrat.com/food/
Thanks for all the great ideas and recipes from a fellow Portlander

I made this with a pink ladie apple, Quorn patties-as we’re all vegetarians here, plenty of Parmesan, and Newmans’ own Ranch (being LAZY)…. and it was a HUGE hit! the entire family loved it, Clare cleaned her plate, and Jeff keeps talking about it…. thanks for the wonderful recipe!!

That looks great! I used to prepare chicken like this, using bread crumbs, but I’ve been meaning to try it with wheat germ. Maybe this is the kick in the pants that i need to actually do it…

Alanna: Ding is right — I just made it!

Tania: I hear you, salads can be difficult and unappealing. It has to be pretty substantial and/or interesting salad to be good (imho) — jwa, can eat greens and a balsamic dressing and me happy. Me? Not so much. Although I just read about your Mashed Green Olive and Ruby Grapefruit Salad and it looks amazing! I think you’re on the right path! And, I really want to try that!

I also just read about a lemon chicken, bell pepper and asparagus salad in my Barefoot Contessa cookbook that sounds wonderful. I will have to try that soon too! Let’s both hang in there with the salads

Ivonne: Thanks! It was fun to make. My mom just got me the timer for Christmas last year and it seemed like a fun way to utilize it!
