[Diva Betsy Ross]

Thanks My! *hugs* It is my *I am feeling lazy* dish.. that is for sure.

I like salads like that for groups when I am not sure of the crowd.

Another I have up my sleeve is a chicken and nectarine salad ,with a yogurt ~curry dressing and chopped peanuts on the top.

Or Cheesy Chicken rolls stuffed with goat cheese, roasted red peppers and rolled in yogurt and breadcrumbs. Then slice and place a roasted asparagus tip on the top~and stick a toothpick in the middle~ and I am done. (If it is easy I am all over it!) Hehe!

Have a great night and fun with Ms. B awesome thread! :]
