This IS the best! I have tried to modify it for my own version, but it is simply perfect as is. The only thing I do differently is use oven ready noodles.

My guests beg for this salad. I have learned that when you dress it is key. Too early and it swims. Too late and it doesn't have time to blend. About 30 minutes prior to eating seems about ideal. I also keep each item stored seperately for use as a dinner side (dressing, toasted items, and slaw). This way it lasts longer as the dressed version gets soggy.

I could not get enough of this dip. One guest asked for the recipe and made it the next weekend at his own gathering and it was gone quickly. I suggest doubling the recipe as it doesn't make very much.
