MANDARIAN ORANGE CRUNCH SALAD SIMPLE! image

I enjoy Asian foods of all kinds and Recently found myself going out to eat . I often buy Mandarin salads or Strawberry salads.. they are over sized expensive and I love them.. I was too tired to go out and wanted one. so I scrounged thru my pantry and fridge and had the makings.. I made up my Own asian dressing as i had none already bottled. I loved the salad filling and Crunchy noodles together.. as many of you may not have all the ingrediants at home.. improvise! Use other vegetables or sauces or fruit.. make something CLICK .. its one of my favorites Pam Toll
