I am just not sure what the trick is supposed to be. What is the deception in "Corned Beef Deception Salad"? Is the title meant to openly admit that these gelatinous horrors aren't actually edible, or is there some other layer of deception I'm missing?
I'm thinking that calling it a salad would be a deception. I know that these gelatin horrors are called salads, but 4 tablespoons of actual vegetables in the whole thing is a stretch. Then again I do know people who use a cup of ranch dressing to eat a 1/4 cup of vegetables.
ReplyDeleteThat's true! Maybe a cup of ranch is the modern equivalent to a few packets of gelatin.
DeleteI can see the video now. To make a "healthy" soup that your kids will eat, boil 4 baby carrots. When soft, put them in a blender, add 2 tablespoons of the carrot water, and a cup of ranch dressing. Blend until smooth. If you want to hide additional vegetables in their soup, cut up a single leaf of spinach into little bits to look like parsley and sprinkle over the top. Serve hot or chilled.
DeleteThat sounds like one of those "I can't believe I got my kids to eat veggies" recipes that makes me roll my eyes and think "I can't believe that qualifies in your mind as eating veggies!"
