Snow Peas with Garlic and Sesame Seeds

Snow Peas with Garlic and Sesame Seeds by Salad Foodie

Cranberry Walnut Cabbage Slaw

Cranberry Walnut Cabbage Slaw by Salad Foodie

This recipe was a top winner in Better Homes & Gardens August 1999 monthly recipe contest and I have made it ever since. It's fits well with a Thanksgiving, Christmas, holiday theme with the dried cranberries and walnuts, and the red and green color combos, but I make it year-round. I especially like the snappy dressing.

For an Italian flair, I add…
