Serves 2

2 packages Chicken Flavor Top Ramen
8 cups spinach leaves, torn
1 1/2 cups turkey or chicken, cooked and diced
1 cup red or green grapes, halved
1 cup red pepper, slivered
1/2 cup cashews, chopped
1/2 cup gorgonzola or blue cheese, crumbled

Dressing:
2 Flavor packets from Chicken Flavor Top Ramen
4 cloves garlic, minced
Juice from 1 small lemon
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup light mayonnaise

Cook noodles according to package directions, but do not add flavor packets. Drain and cool. Cut noodles up slightly. Combine with other salad ingredients in a large bowl.

In a small bowl, mix flavor packets, garlic and lemon juice and let stand at least 15 minutes. Add oil and mayonnaise and whisk until smooth. Pour dressing over salad and toss until thoroughly mixed.

Garnish with red pepper rings and small grape clusters if desired. Quick and delicious!
