Salad:
1 pkg. spinach
1 pkg. spring mix greens
Sugared almonds
Craisins
Sliced strawberries
Red onion
Dressing:
½ cup lemon juice
½ cup sugar
2 TB olive oil
1 TB Dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste
Do not mix before you are ready to serve and only as much as you will need because strawberries and dressing will wilt spinach. All ingredients will keep if not mixed. Makes 12 servings.
Sugared Almonds:
slivered almonds (or walnuts etc)
1-2 cups sugar
About 1/8-1/4 c. water
Dash of cinnamon
Mix water and sugar in skillet. Add almonds and continue to stir mixture until sugar makes a syrup and water evaporates. When water evaporates turn almonds onto wax paper on cookie sheet to dry and crisp up. Sugared almonds will keep in a Ziploc bag so you can make a big batch and use some later on.
