Great Foods We Ate in July @ Me~We!

submitted by my wonderful ladies, Dru and Irene

Pistachio Pudding Dessert
1- 20 oz. can crushed pineapple drained
2- 3 oz. boxes dry pistachio pudding ( regular or sugar free)
1- 16 oz. thawed cool whip
1/2 bag miniature marshmallows
Stir all together and Chill

8 Minute Cheese Cake
1- 8oz cream cheese softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla
1- 8 oz. thawed cool whip
Beat cream cheese and fold in sugar, add sour cream and vanilla and fold in cool whip.
Pour in a graham cracker crust and chill for 4 hours. You can top with your favorite topping. Cherry pie filling, strawberries, caramel, chocolate syrup, etc. It's GOOD frozen too!

Oriental Broccoli Slaw

1 16oz bag broccoli slaw ( in produce dept. w/ bagged lettuce) or I have used the shredded cabbage and carrot mix when I can't find that.
1 can cashew's or pieces
1 cup sunflower seeds
1 bunch chopped green onions
2 pkgs. Oriental ramen noodles (RAW)
Crush noodles and mix in salad right before you add dressing so they stay crunchy.
Mix all together and mix dressing:
3/4 cup veg. oil
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup white vinegar
and the 2 seasoning pkts. from the noodles. Mix well and put in frig. to chill a bit and right before serving, shake well, add noodles and stir in the dressing.

Good too with a grilled chicken breast on the side or on top.
