Spinach and Feta Cheese Pasta Salad

1 box bow tie pasta
2 packages of Good Seasons Italian Dressing
Bag of spinach leaves
1 container of grape/cherry tomatoes- halved
Crumbled Feta cheese

1. Boil noodles
2. While noodles cooking, make dressing (following the package.... I use the less oil way and use white balsamic instead of regular vinegar).
3. Rinse noodles in cold water. Add all ingredients except for cheese and toss. Refrigerate overnight (or at least a few hours to wilt the spinach).
4. Add feta cheese when ready to serve.

Boc Choy Salad

Large bunch of Boc Choy
1 bunch of green onions
4 packs of Ramen Noodles (any flavor)
1/2 cup Almonds ( I use shaved)
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup salad oil
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
2 Tbs soy sauce
1/2 cup butter

Need 3 Bowls or (Ziplock to mix)

Bowl 1: Rinse, core, and chop Boc Choy. Break apart and add diced onions.

Bowl 2: Crush noodles while in package. Melt butter in frying pan, add noodles (throw away seasoning packets). When noodles are brown, add almonds and then sunflower seeds. (DO NOT REFRIGERATE)

Bowl 3: Whisk salad oil, vinegar, sugar and soy sauce. Put in Refrigerator. Will need to rewhisk dressing before adding to salad (it will separate).

Mix together when ready to serve.
