Betty's Classic Salad

 

Betty's Salad

Betty's Salad was entered into the Holiday Inn International Competition in London for Holiday Inn Restaurant's Recipe Contest winning 1st place for salads. The Timko's owned and managed the Perrysburg Holiday Inn.  The restaurant named The Wooden Indian and later became Soup and Such. The restaurant is no longer owned by the late Timko's and serves a heavy truck traffic. The recipe as typed here is exactly the ingredients of Betty's original recipe. The addition of water chestnuts came from elsewhere not Betty Timko.  Betty's Salad Dressing is still available in Toledo area Food Stores.
