That's Fantastic Tarawynn! I keep coming here because I need the support and the at least weekly accountability. Oops I guess I didn't see the 23rd post.

Asian Slaw
Ingredients
· 12 cups packed coleslaw mix
· 1 can (10 fl oz/284 ml) mandarin orange segments, drained
· 1/2 cup Light Catalina salad dressing
· 1/4 cup Light mayonnaise
· 2 tbsp soy sauce
· 1/3 cup peanuts
Instructions
1. Toss coleslaw mix and oranges in large bowl.
2. Mix dressings and soy sauce in small bowl. Pour dressing mixture over coleslaw mixture; toss gently until well coated.
3. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours or overnight. Sprinkle with peanuts just before serving.
I thought maybe you might like this one for a great healthy 4th of July salad. I hope you like it as much as my husband does--he LOVES it. I'm not a slaw person so I don't care for any kind of cole slaw--but most people do. (Always the weird one, yanno LOL)

Holy cow is it the 4th of July time already??!! My how time does fly! On July 2nd it will be my 11 monthiversary since my surgery....one month to my year mark! WOW!! My surgeon told me at the appointment the other day that at this stage most people will have reached their weight loss peak. She doesn't think I need to worry about getting to my goal of 120 to be healthy. Like I've said before, if I don't lose another pound from here I'm still sooooo happy to be where I am! I hope all of you have a SUPER celebration on July 4th! Be safe! I love you all!!
