I great Dallas friend served this YEARS ago when I was back in college.  It’s from Come on in: Recipes from the Junior League of Jackson, Mississippi I’ve always had great success from Southern Junior League cookbooks.  And if you know me, you know I’m not a huge salad eater, UNLESS it has lots of goodness in it.  This is a great one!

1 cup walnuts, chopped
1 pkg Ramen Noodels, uncooked, broken up (discard flavor packet)
4Tbs unsalted butter (I’m lazy and use regular butter)

1 bunch broccoli, coarsely chopped
1 head romaine lettuce, washes, broken into pieces (Can use a spring mix too)
4 green onions, chopped

1 cup Sweet & Sour Dressing (a little goes a long way, use what works for you)

Directions:

Brown walnuts and noodles in butter; cool on paper towels.  Combine noodles and walnuts and broccoli, romaine, and onions.  Pour Sweet and Sour Dressing over and toss to coat well.

Sweet & Sour Dressing:

Yields 2 1/2 cups

1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup wine vinegar (I ran out today and used Champagne Vinegar, just as good)
1 Tbs soy sauce
salt & pepper to taste

Blend all ingredients.
