BABY BOK CHOY SALAD
This crunchy salad is from my friend, Louie. The dressing keeps very well in the cupboard, and the quantities for it shown here are enough for three or four batches of salad. The cooking time includes toasting the almonds and pine nuts. Jen -- a reviewer -- is right. This salad is better if it is dressed a while before it is served. But wait to add the crispy noodles just before serving. Leftovers of this get a bit soggy overnight, but are still quite nice the next day.

WARM BOK CHOY, BEET AND FETA SALAD

BOK CHOY RAMEN NOODLE SALAD
Great side dish for a BBQ or lunch buffet. This was my Mom's neighbor's recipe and I got the same recipe from my friend and neighbor (small world). The ramen noodles add and nice crunch and this is very simple to prepare. You can half the ingredients for a smaller salad and you can also use romaine lettuce instead of bok choy if you like. My friend, Alisa, adds kidney beans to the salad.
