Oriental Salad

This photo doesn't do this salad justice. I promise it is delicious--give it a try!

I received this recipe from a neighbor of mine and it is always a huge hit at parties!

Oriental Salad

• 1 Head Iceberg Lettuce, chopped
  
• 3 Green Onions,chopped
  
• 1-3oz container Crunchy Rice Noodles 
  
• Small Package Sliced Almonds-toasted
  
• 4 Tbsp. Sesame Seeds
  
• 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  

Dressing:

• 4 Tbsp. sugar
  
• 1 tsp. salt
  
• 1/2 c. vegetable oil
  
• 2 Tbsp. white vinegar
  
• 1 tsp. accent (msg)
  

Toss and serve with dressing

If I am bringing this to a party, I will make it ahead of time but not placing the ingredients together. It is best freshly made, otherwise it can get a bit soggy and the lettuce wilts quickly.

This is how I prepare it:

• Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces and place in a bowl with a moistened paper towel over it.  This helps keep the lettuce crisp and fresh.
• Place all the items individually in ziploc bags.
  
•  Make the dressing.
  
• Right before serving, toss all ingredients together
