  2. Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water.
  3. Place the cooled, drained pasta in a large bowl.
  4. Add 1/4 cup of the dressing to the pasta and toss to combine.
  5. Add in the chicken, spinach, mandarin oranges, craisins/cranberries, green onion, parmesan cheese and toasted almonds.
  6. Drizzle dressing over the top (to taste, you may not want to use it all), and toss everything to combine. Serve immediately.

Instructions
  1. Sift the flour, measure and resift 3 times with the baking powder and salt. Combine the spices and mix thoroughly with boiling water. Cream the butter until soft and smooth, blend in 3/4 C of the sugar, and add the beaten egg yolks. Beat until light and fluffy. Stir in spice mixture; then add flour mixture and milk alternately, beginning and ending with flour and beating until smooth after each addition. Beat egg whites, add remaining 1/4 C sugar, and continue beating until very stiff; fold into batter. Turn into two 8-inch cake pans which have been lined with thin plain paper in bottom. Bake in a moderate oven (350F) for about 25 minutes, until springy when pressed lightly with the finger tips. Cool 5 minutes before removing from pans and then turn out and cool thoroughly on cake racks. Put together with orange frosting.
Recipe Notes

I changed the recipe slightly from what was in the cooking encyclopedia.  First, I changed to shortening rather than butter: though both were listed as options, I prefer shortening.  I also added an egg yolk to try to counteract the dryness.  That didn't work as well as I'd hoped, so I'm going to add 2 egg yolks next time, and look into changing from milk to buttermilk.

Instructions
  1. Empty salmon into bowl. Remove as much of the bone and skin as you'd like - they are small and edible, so it's just a matter of taste. Crush the crackers with your hands as you put them in the bowl with the salmon. Add egg, Worcester, salt & pepper and mix together with your hands. Form 4 patties, making them a bit thick, and put on a plate or small sheet pan to put in the fridge for up to 2 hours before cooking.
  2. Heat skillet with butter/oil to 300F (medium heat). Place patties in, avoid crowding. Cover and let cook for about 4-5 minutes, then flip, cover, and let cook another 4-5 minutes. Internal temperature should be 150-160F.
  3. I like to serve on a plate with just some tartar sauce, but they wold be excellent for sandwiches, too.

  4. Pour the cooled custard into the pie crust(s). Cover with plastic wrap and chill completely (about 2 hours).

Really tasty! But I think I will use plain yogurt next time. I really only used vanilla because I grabbed it by mistake, and wanted to use it somehow.
