Rice-A-Roni Salad
This Rice-A-Roni salad is great for a potluck. Variations may include adding more veggies or using shrimp instead of chicken. If you're careful about the amount of dressing you stir in, this salad can be chilled and unmolded onto a plate.

Only use fresh fruit for this cobbler recipe — any variation will work. I usually use sweetened peaches and lightly sugared berries, but this is optional. Serve warm with cream, ice cream, or whipped cream.
