Nanas Green Dream Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 2 cups of water to a boil, then remove from the heat. Stir in the gelatin until completely dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Add 1 cup cold water, the cranberry sauce and pineapple. Mix well, ensuring you break apart any large chunks of the cranberry sauce. Pour into a 9-by-13-inch pan. Cover and place in the refrigerator until firm, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
• Beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar with a hand mixer until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the milk and mix until completely combined. The frosting should be thick but still pourable. Carefully spread the cream cheese frosting in a thin layer over the cranberry sauce. Zest the orange directly over the frosting. Serve up in individual squares.

Steps:

• Mix Cheddar cheese and mayonnaise together in a small bowl.
• Pat lettuce into an even layer in the bottom of a large glass serving bowl. Layer tomatoes, black olives, peas, and water chestnuts, respectively, into the bowl. Spread Cheddar cheese mixture over the water chestnuts layer; top with bacon.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate until salad is chilled, at least 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Butter the bottom and sides of an 8 1/2x11-inch baking dish with butter.
• Use remaining butter to coat 1 side of each bread slice. Place bread butter-side down in the prepared pan until entire bottom is covered in a single layer.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned, crumbly, and almost fully cooked, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle sausage over bread in an even layer.
• Beat eggs, sour cream, and pepper with either a whisk or electric beater. Pour evenly over sausage.
• Mix Cheddar cheese and green chiles together in a separate bowl. Sprinkle evenly over the egg mixture. Cover and put in the refrigerator for 8 hours, to overnight.
• To bake: Do not preheat the oven. Place, uncovered, in an oven and set to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until brown on top, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Line a large plate with paper towels. Set aside. Bring a medium saucepan of generously salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the snap peas, and cook until just tender, about 90 seconds. Use a strainer to remove the peas onto the prepared plate, and spread out in a single layer. Allow to cool and dry completely (the dressing won't stick to a wet snap pea). Cut each pea in half crosswise on the bias.
• In a large bowl, combine the snap peas, romaine, cucumbers and green onions. Mix well to combine. Add the avocado and about half the dressing. Mix gently with your hands until the salad is well coated with dressing, adding more if necessary. Taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve cold, immediately. Cover and refrigerate remaining dressing for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Place pecans in a skillet over medium-low heat; cook and stir until pecans are toasted and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and pour into a heatproof bowl; stir to prevent nuts from overcooking.
• Beat sugar, cream cheese, and vanilla extract together with an electric mixer in a bowl until smooth. Fold in pecans and grapes. Stir gently until grapes are coated.

Steps:

• Mix lime Jell-O with 1 cup of boiling water. Stir to dissolve mixture. Drain pineapple and reserve juice. Use juice in place of second cup of water. Mix well, you can use a few ice cubes to cool.
• Using hand mixer (or whatever mixer you have) fold in Cool Whip. Cut up the Philadelphia Cream Cheese and add to bowl. Also add Dole Pineapple and mix on low speed for about 20 to 30 seconds. (At this time add marshmallows if desired.)
• Pour mixture into a 13" by 9" glass dish. Place in fridge overnight. Serve as a dessert or just for something light to eat anytime.
