"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

¼ to 1/3 cup of sliced green onion

6-8 oz sliced almonds
¼ cup sesame seeds

¼ cup sugar
¼ cup white vinegar
½ cup oil
1 ½ tsp salt
1 Tbsp soy sauce
½ tsp ground ginger
Directions:
Directions:
Tear lettuce into bite-size pieces; toss in green onion.
In a small skillet, melt the butter, and sauté the almonds and sesame seeds – want a little color.
Add cooked chicken to lettuce.

Dressing:

In a small saucepan, heat the first 4 ingredients together over low heat until sugar dissolves.
If you have a hand-held immersion blender, then add the soy sauce and ginger and blend well.
If not, transfer the vinegar/oil mixture to a jar with a tight-lid, and then add the soy sauce and ginger,
and shake well.
Let the dressing cool slightly.
Pour over the lettuce; toss well. Add chow mein noodles (1 cup) if you like.
This is great salad for the summer!
