A popular one with our family is the noodle salad one, I think I have posted it on here before.
Made with 2 min noodles, chopped tomato, grated carrot, chopped capsicum and part boiled brocolli florets. Mixed in a dressing of 2 min noodle flavour sachets, oil vinegar, curry powder and honey.
Even better made the night before, just needs stirring every now and then while in the fridge to make sure its well covered.

That sounds fine geldof. Just ignore those people who can't see past salads made from tinned, frozen and stodgy products then drenched in icky sugar laden and/or chemical filled, processed dressings.

Christmas green and red salad
Ingredients 15 ounce can whole kernel cornsame of peas and kidney beans. I used frozen corn and peas.
one half minced red onion, half a cup chopped celery,half a cup sliced radishes, 1 cup creamy salad dressing, 2 tablespoons milk or cream.Combine corn, peas, beans, onions celery and radish. Whisk together salad dressing and milk or cream, pour over salad toss and refrigerate over night. This recipe doesn't sound much but is absolutely delicious. If I was Annabel I would say"sooo delicious"
