Yet another recipe I gleened from an office potluck, back in the day when people actually prepared something from scratch for such events. One of my co-workers would often bring this in, and we would compete for who got to lick the bowl clean when all the contents were gone (and quickly). Read more . The homemade dressing is just excellent on this, and worth the few minutes it takes to prepare. Ingredients:
1 bag of baby spinach leaves, chopped coarsely |
1 head of romaine lettuce, chopped coarsely |
1 red onion, sliced thin |
1 can mandarin oranges, drained well |
1 to 2 cups pecans, walnuts or almonds, toasted |
(toast nuts by placing them in a hot skillet with about a tablespoon of butter and stir constantly until nuts begin to “toast” or turn a golden brown) |
poppy seed dressing (posted seperately under poppy seed dressing in the blender |
Directions:
1. Toss all salad ingredients together just before serving.
2. Drizzle poppy seed dressing over all, using as much or as little as you prefer. The dressing is quite sweet, so let your taste buds be your guide!
3. Serve immediately.
