This is a recipe my wife and I have tinkered with and molded to our likes. We make it for special occasions, as the title suggests. Some of the ingredients are simply to taste, so feel free to tinker with the proportions to suit your own tastes. Ingredients:
1 (5 1/2 ounce) package fresh spinach |
4 slices bacon, fried and crumbled |
1 (4 ounce) bag candied walnuts or 1 (4 ounce) bag pecans |
1 red pepper, diced |
1/3 cup dried cranberries |
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained |
1 (4 ounce) container of crumbled blue cheese |
1/3 cup raspberry-walnut vinaigrette (or to taste) |
Directions:
1. In a large salad bowl, toss first 7 ingredients. Add desired amount of dressing and toss with remaining ingredients. Enjoy!
