This salad grabs the mealtime spotlight whenever I serve it. The grapes, mandarin oranges and almonds add sweetness and crunch to the greens and avocado...and the dressing has a mild curry flavor. Ingredients:
10 cups torn red leaf lettuce |
1 cup torn fresh spinach |
1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained |
1 cup halved green grapes |
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
1/3 cup white wine vinegar |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1 teaspoon curry powder |
1 teaspoon soy sauce |
1 ripe avocado, peeled and sliced |
Directions:
1. In a large salad bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the oil, vinegar, garlic, sugar, curry powder and soy sauce; shake well. Drizzle over salad; toss to coat. Garnish with avocado. Yield: 12 servings.
