Bean Sprout Salad - Mom Style
"My Mom used to make this for special occasions. I could eat a whole batch of this all myself. It is even better the next day all wilted and soggy, but most people prefer it fresh."

We enjoyed this salad which is also very adaptable to changes. I used the whole head of lettuce but only about 6 ounces of bean sprouts and everything as indicated, except in the dressing I used chili sesame oil (I didn't have the other kind) -- very good and it makes a lot! I will be having this very WW friendly salad for lunch all week! Thanks for sharing! -
This is very good, a nice change from the usual. I'm thinking adding chicken for a main dish salald would be excellent. Thanks for posting! -
This was delicious and made a lot of salad. Great color and texture all around also. The only drawback was the mushrooms soaked up all the dressing. Be sure to add them last. This salad is 3 points per serving for any Weight Watchers out there.

I am an Aussie and moved to Southern California in 1991. I have a very sarcastic sense of humour and my talents lie in being intuitive, singing, and eating.
I have traveled all over the world and have lived in many locations. I spent the most time in Melbourne Australia ), Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Southern California, New York and Harrisburg PA. If you were to ask me what I love &/or miss about each place my first choice would ALWAYS be the food.
My hobbies are acquiring lots of environmental, and medical allergies. <---- Joking but I am super sensitive and so I can be a big pain in the bum to cook for. I guess that is why I love to cook. I know exactly what is going into my mouth and not have to worry about keeping my epipen or inhaler in close reach.
