make this tonight.
(You'll thank me later.)
Spring Spinach Salad
Ingredients:
2 packages spinach blend salad (or 1 package spinach leaves and 1 spring mix--whatever you prefer)
2 small cans of mandarin oranges--drained
1/2 red onion--thinly sliced
8 slices of cooked bacon--crumbled
5 slices of swiss cheese--cut into small squares
1/2 package of Honey Roasted Almond Accents
(dressing)
1/3 cup vinegar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 diced red onion
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 Tbsp poppy seeds
1 Tbsp mustard
Directions:
This is pretty much a dump and toss kind of recipe. Toss the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Then, in a separate bowl, combine the dressing ingredients and whisk until well blended. Pour dressing over salad and toss again. Eat right away.
*Note: Alone, this recipe will feed 4-5 people. As a side, it feeds approximately 15. If you want to make this ahead of time, do not add the dressing until right before you eat. Enjoy!

YUM!
I actually have been craving this lately. I was going to call and ask for the recipe-no joke! Thanks for the recipe, and for anyone that hasn't had it it's delicious.
For Sadie Hawkins dinner in HS, we were going to make a salad and I accidently left the oranges in with the salad stuff. Anyway, the girl that was supposed to bring the salad put the oranges in and everyone thought that I'd meant to do that...never thought it would actually become the "thing to do". Now, I see oranges in all salads (or so it seems). This looks really good. I'll have to try it since I'm going on a health kick (and dragging my family with them). Hope you're feeling better...sinus infections are no fun.
I am so going to make that! Looks yummy :)
I have made it waaaayyyy too many times since you gave me the recipe... LOVE IT!
I'm always excited about a new salad recipe! I have a whole binder dedicated to salads I love, so thanks for the new addition... can't wait to make it (it looks beautiful too)!
Yay! Now I know where to find the recipe when I can't find mine or I'm not home.
This is the best salad I've ever had!
A close second would be "Wonton Salad".
Miss you!
