search in the boxes on the left - there already is a thread or two.I can vouch for the broccoli and bacon salad - the dressing is yummy and soooo easy.

Broccoli Salad
300gr broccoli florets cut small
300gr cauliflower florets cut small
1 stalk celery
100gr mushrooms
1 red pepper
1/2 cup bean sprouts
Dressing:
1 tsp freshly peeled & grated ginger (keep my root in freezer and grate it frozen - always have ginger on hand that way)
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp salad oil
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp brown sugar
Cook broccoli and cauliflower in microwave on high for approx 6 minutes until tender but still crisp. Place in fridge until cold.
Peel the celery with a potato peeler to remove strands and cut on a fine diagonal.
Prepare and slice mushrooms.
Halve pepper and cut into small chunks.
Rinse bean sprouts in cold water and drain well.
Combine all salad ingredients in a serving bowl.
To make dressing, mix all ingredients together. Just before serving, pour dressing over vegetables in a bowl. Toss gently.
I prefer this without the bean sprouts.
