COMPANY'S COMING MULTI LAYERED SALAD
For special events or for show, a deep punch bowl or large glass bowl really shows off this salad. It is a bit harder to layer in a bowl that is rounded but it looks great if you are having it on your table. I personally do not like head lettuce, so I use romaine, spring mix and sometimes add spinach to it.

COMPANY GREEN SALAD
I partially put this salad together and take the remaining ingredients (candied nuts, seeds, rice noodles and dressing) to mix in at the potluck. Works perfectly every time. -Joan Hallford, North Richland Hills, Texas
