Poppyseed Spinach Salad
Poppy Seed Salad
(from RS Retreat - committee gave me the recipe)
Dressing:
1 cup sugar
3/4 cider vinegar
2 tsp. salt
2 TBS. mustard
2 TBS. poppyseeds
2 Cups Oil
1/2 medium red onion
Put in blender & mix til onion is dissolved.
Salad:
1 head romaine
1 head red leaf
1 pkg. baby spinach leaves
2 cans of mandarin oranges - chilled
1 bag of sliced almonds - candied
Top with almonds and oranges last or they all sink to the bottom. :)
To candy the almonds:
Large non-stick frying pan
2 TBS. of butter in pan on medium heat. Sprinkle 2 TBS. of white sugar on butter. Put almonds in and sprinkle with 3 TBS of sugar. WATCH CAREFULLY SO ALMONDS DON'T BURN. As soon as the sugar melts turn almonds over. Remove from heat. Break up a bit and just try to resist eating them all before putting on the salad!
