Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 You can use bottled thousand island dressing or make this dressing recipe. I suggest taking a little extra time and making it like we have always done. It's so much better. Very colorful salad and if you want even more color, use 1/2 head green cabbage and 1/2 head of the purple cabbage. I always toss some poppy seeds into the dressing and you can use 1/2 orange bell pepper too. Swedish Salad (Svenske Sallad) 1 med. head cabbage, shredded finely 1/2 red bell pepper, julienned 1/2 green bell pepper, julienned 1/2 yellow bell pepper, julienned 2 celery stalks, finely chopped 2 green onions, chopped and include the tops 1 can pickled or unpickled beets, drained & julienned 1 cucumber, grated or finely chopped 2 carrots, peeled and shredded (Optional) 2 hard boiled eggs, chopped Mix all together and chill until ready to toss with salad dressing and serve. Dressing 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup white vinegar 1/3 cup canola oil 1/2 cup ketchup 1/3 cup boiling water 1 tablespoon minced onion 1 teaspoon salt dash of black pepper Pour the boiling water over sugar and stir until dissolved. Let cool for a few moments and add balance of ingredients and mix well, you can place all in a jar and shake. Chill and toss with salad before ready to serve.

And so quick and easy to make too. I save the empty Kraft salad dressing bottles because they have the neat pouring insert. Labels come off easy too. This recipe just about fills one bottle. THANK YOU so much. My heritage is Swedish (Forsberg) but I am just learning to cook the foods. And this is great of bagged cole slaw I just found out too. mikef orygun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 That is a delicious salad & gorgeous too. I think there's a pic in the files of one I made for Norwegian Independence Day 2 years back. Everyone loved the salad Peace, Diane , Donnalilacflower <thelilacflower wrote: > > You can use bottled thousand island dressing or make > this dressing recipe.
