This salad sounds ver y tasty, I wanted to print it and I got all the advertising on the page too. Thus the printing was so small I couldn't read it. Do you have a way to just get the recipe without all the adds. You know a "printer friendly" version?
Just me

To get the recipe without all the ads and larger print.....just highlight what you want to copy, open a word document and paste it. Then change the font to size 12. A perfect size and very easy to read. plus you can delete amything that copies over that you do not want on your recipe page. A font size 10 might work, but I like it big enough to read. I have not tried the recipe yet, but it sounds delicious!! Hope this works for you.
