Found this - made immediately as I had all the ingredients on hand - except buttermilk - so I used greek 0% fat yogurt 1st. I loved it! Can hardly wait for breakfast to eat more! YUMMO!

I also made this with a pre-packaged broccoli slaw, halving the recipe for a 12 oz package. The dressing was great and the cranberries a tasty addition

Loved it. I made it with the pre-packaged broccoli slaw mixture. I really enjoyed the flavors and textures. The cranberries were sweet and chewy; the almonds crunchy.

My little house is overflowing with cookbooks, thank goodness I found Recipezaar! I can collect all the recipes I want! I live in Fort Worth, Texas close to my two grown kids and four grandchildren. We love to visit Costa Rica. This is a picture of my whole family over spring break.I'm the big momma in the back. We went to Costa Rica and had such a great trip. We are now importing Costa Rica coffee. I enjoy baking with my granddaughters. We like to make cookies and cupcakes. Saturday morning is reserved for cooking lessons with the kids. <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo />
