Use any combination of nuts and seeds. This salad would also be good with sliced bell pepper or shiitake mushrooms. Serve as an accompaniment to pepper steak or pork chops glazed with hoisin sauce. Look for the wheat noodles labeled as plain for this salad.
This hearty soup is a great 'warm you upper' for a cold winter night! Served with fresh grated Romano cheese and oven warm Italian bread, it's a hit any night of the week. Mangia!
