BLUE CHEESE BUTTERMILK CREAMY DRESSING

This recipe is similar to one used at California's North Woods Inn restaurant chain. Try this quick and easy recipe and you'll never go back to bottled bleu cheese dressing. (I haven't yet tried this, but wanted to save it.)

NORTHWOODS INN RED CABBAGE SALAD



Northwoods Inn Red Cabbage Salad image

This is the famous Red Cabbage Salad served at the Northwoods Inn. I found this recipe in the Los Angeles Times Newspaper in 1990 - developed by the Times Test Kitchen, in 1990. It's based on the salad from the Clearman's restaurant chain. It's super yummy!! Cooks note: The measurement for the red wine vinegar is 1/2 cup plus 2 Tbsp. (easier to measure than 10 Tbsp.)
