DIRECTIONS

1 In 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish, layer salad greens, carrots, water chestnuts, orange segments and onions. Sprinkle with sesame seed. 2 In small bowl, mix all dressing ingredients except oil with wire whisk. Gradually add oil, beating until well blended. Drizzle dressing evenly over salad. Top with chow mein noodles.
*To toast sesame seed, cook in ungreased heavy skillet over medium heat about 2 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.
For a bit of extra sesame flavor, use 1 teaspoon sesame oil instead of the soy sauce in the dressing.
Look for wide chow mein noodles for a fun garnish for the salad.
