Source: Revised Jackie Olden recipe Comments: The original recipe called for 2 yellow onions, 2 cans of water chestnuts, 3 cups of sliced mushrooms, and an entire 16 oz. bottle of dressing. I added the kidney beans, radishes, red cabbage, and zucchini. Just about any vegetable could be added or substituted in this recipe...such as jicama, corn, chili peppers, etc. Could also serve it tossed with some chopped lettuce for a change of pace.
