About


I create new recipes whenever I cook, which is 90% of the time.
This particular Asian Chicken Salad Recipe is simple to prepare and very nutritious.  When I cook a relatively well know dish, I put my own slant on it, and in this case it was the addition of several ingredients to perk it up.  It was so well received, I added it to my party plate menu.
Everyone who has tried it to date loves it.  In fact, on my website, it's July's "Hall of Acclaim" recipe.  June's was Pasta PrimaCherry!
