INSTRUCTIONS
This picnic salad has a molasses vinaigrette dressing. Remember this salad
for your next potluck. In a large bowl combine rinsed and drained beans,
celery, and green onions. For dressing, in a screw-top jar combine vinegar,
molasses, oil, mustard, and pepper. Cover and shake well to mix. Pour
dressing over bean mixture; stir to coat. Cover and chill for 4 to 24
hours, stirring occasionally. To serve, line a salad bowl or platter with
lettuce leaves. Stir curly endive and bacon into bean mixture. Using a
slotted spoon, transfer bean mixture to the salad bowl. If desired, garnish
with green onion strips. Makes 10 to 12 side-dish servings.
jmerrill@prodigy.com. Lynn Thomas' notes: Made this on 11-4-97 to go along
with a bowl of soup. I added about 1 teaspoon salt to the bean mixture, put
the greens into a salad bowl and spooned the beans on top of the salad.
Delicious salad--would be good for a potluck, as suggested.
