A delicious veggie salad was served at the A. A. Songy Teacher Appreciation luncheon at the school in Luling by Amy Brezinsky, secretary, and Leslie Cambre, treasurer, of the Songy PTA.
Here how’s to make it yourself at home, complete with dressing and garnish of Nasturtium flowers.
Salad
1 bunch broccoli
1 head cauliflower
2 tender green onion bunches
4 hard boiled eggs, chopped
1 1/2 cup olive salad mix
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Sauce
1 cup Hellman’s Mayonnaise
1/2 cup Wishbone Italian Dressing. Garnish with Nasturtium flowers
Method
1. Chop broccoli and cauliflower in small pieces
2. Dunk pieces into boiling water for about 1/2 minute to gain pretty color
3. Cool quickly with ice water

5. Boil eggs by placing them in a pot of water; bringing water to a boil, covering, turning off heat and letting sit for 20 minutes.
6. Place olive salad in a food processor and chop more finely.
7. Finely slice green onions
