AUNT DOROTHY'S MARINATED CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Place the carrots in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until carrots are tender. Do not over cook, the carrots should be firm but easy to bite into. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking.
• In the container of a food processor or blender, combine the tomato soup, sugar, oil, vinegar, cayenne pepper, salt and mustard powder. Blend for about 3 minutes or until creamy.
• In a large bowl, mix together the carrots, green, red and yellow bell peppers and onion. Toss with the dressing, cover and refrigerate overnight. The longer this salad is allowed to sit, the better it is.

THE GREENBRIER'S FAMOUS CHICKEN SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Put the chickens in a large stock pot with lightly salted cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and poach gently, skimming off any foam accumulating on the surface, until the meat is very tender when pierced with a knife, 50-60 minutes. Leave the chickens to cool in the poaching liquid. When cool enough to handle, remove all the meat using a paring knife and your fingers. Discard any skin, fat, or gristle. Cut the meat into ¼-inch dice. (The poaching liquid can be used as chicken stock in another recipe.) The chicken may be prepared up to 1 day ahead.
• Mix together the diced chicken, diced celery, sour cream, mayonnaise, and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Chill well before serving with greens and vegetables as a salad, on bread for a sandwich, or with half a cantaloupe as served at The Greenbrier outdoor pool.
