'Life Just Got A Little Easier' Salad



'Life Just Got A Little Easier' 
~Salad~


Excuse me...are you in a hurry???
Don't you have those days that it seems all you're doing is rushing around and you barely have time to catch your breath?

I have...many times.  I've had to use the technique of planning way ahead of time for certain activities and then there are those times I think I'm really prepared just to get a jolt of reality that I had to put something together that wasn't planned for.

Pull a rabbit out of your hat and call it good.
'Life Just Got A Little Easier' with this cold Salad.
Few ingredients needed.
Quick and easy prep time.

You'll need a prep bowl, sharp knife, spoon to toss with, clean bowl to serve salad in with serving spoon.

~Broccoli and Cauliflower SALAD~

Ingredients

Broccoli
Cauliflower
Raisins
Green Goddess Dressing

Directions

1) Break off or cut enough individual pieces of broccoli crowns and cauliflower heads for size salad you want to serve.
2) Wash off the veggie pieces in cold water and then shake off the excess water from veggies.
3) Place in bowl after cutting the veggies the bite size you want to use.
4) Add two handfuls of raisins. More if you like.
5) Pour desired amount of Green Goddess Dressing to cover veggies.
(This salad is good with Ranch Dressing as well)
6)Toss and mix salad.
7) Can chill til ready to serve.


This salad could be dolled up when placed in a beautiful crystal dish!

TIP: Nothing wasted...Some people use the left over broccoli stocks for soups, stews or salads. Trim the leaves off of the stock/stems then rinse and store for later date use. They'll freeze just fine.

I just love quick and easy dishes to prepare 
for Dining On The Prairie!
Hows 'bout you?

Hi Deanna,

This salad sounds delicious and I think anything that does not take too much work, is good.
I have just eaten a salad with lettuce, avocados and shrimp and dressing.

Happy week

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

through

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
