Everyone loves it. Whenever I take it to a pot-luck, it's always the first thing to go.
Ingredients:
salad
1/2 c. sliced almonds
6 c. torn romaine lettuce
1 c. sliced celery
3 t. sugar
1 - 11 oz. can of mandarin orange slices, drained
3 green onions, sliced
dressing
1/2 c. salad oil
2 - 3 t. sugar
1/2 t. ground mustard
1/4 c. vinegar
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. garlic powder
Directions:
1. In a sauce pan over medium heat, cook and stir the almonds and sugar, until the almonds are coated and lightly browned (about 4 minutes). Spread the almonds on a plate or sheet of aluminum foil to cool; gently break apart.
2. In a large salad bowl, combine the Romaine lettuce, oranges, celery and onions. Top with the almonds. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the dressing ingredients; shake well. Pour over the salad and gently toss. Serves 8.
3. Notes: I like to add more Lettuce than the recipes states, like 8 to 10 cups. It can easily be stretched to serve more that way too.
