The much-coveted green salad recipe
Since so many of you requested this, I'm posting the green salad recipe which I've been craving crazily for the past week. We first discovered this recipe from a tea room my sister, brother, and I worked at for a number of years. Since then, it has become a family favorite and a staple on our Thanksgiving menu. Though the combination might sound interesting, I served it to hundreds of people at the tea room and rarely ever came across anyone who didn't really like it. Usually, people were begging me for the recipe! Maybe it will become a Thanksgiving favorite at your home too.
"Green Green" Salad
1 10 oz. pkg. frozen chopped broccoli, cooked and drained
1 green pepper, chopped
1 cucumber, seeded and chopped
1 can green beans, drained and chopped
1 can artichokes, drained on paper towel and chopped
1 can asparagus, drained, squeezed out and chopped
Dressing:
1/2 c. half and half
1 cup mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip)
2 Tbsp. garlic salt
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
Stir dressing ingredients together and mix well into vegetables. Refrigerate overnight. Note: This will not taste good when first mix it. It must sit at least overnight. Enjoy.

Yay! Thanks so much. I plan to pick up the ingredients for this next time I go to the grocery store.
Thanks for posting Crystal, I have actually made this up as I had the ingredients, however, the 2 T. of garlic salt seems rather high? Is that correct or could it be 2 t. of garlic salt?? Just checking! Happy Thanksgiving! Diane
Hi, Diane. Yes. Though if you or anyone else does something different, let me know. It has a sort of pickled taste when done and you most certainly probably wouldn't want to eat a huge bowl of it (unles you're like me and pregnant! :).
Ohhh, Thank You for posting it! I can't wait to try it!
Hugs,
Kim
