Month 7 day 16: Leftovers reworked

Today I made:
Chicken and Glass Noodle Salad, Cooking Light August 2010


(no picture of my own, so enjoy the official picture instead)

Yesterday when I was filing away the extra August recipes I noticed this one, with ingredients uncannily similar to yesterday's meal: cellophane noodles, rotisserie chicken, carrot, bell pepper, cilantro, and mint. Since I had extras of all of this already (ok, with some lettuce and mung beans too), I decided to add some onion, peanuts, and the dressing from this recipe and liven up the leftovers as a new salad.

Yeah, it's kind of similar to yesterday's food, but it's got vinegar and more lime juice, so it gets a little flavor boost from that. This would be a good recipe for a hot summer day when you don't want to turn on the stove. G doesn't like these noodles though I think :(
