| Prep time | 30 minutes |
| 1 | Package | premade salad (I like the one with leaf lettuce and radicchio) |
| 2 | green onions (chopped) | |
| 1⁄2 | Cup | celery (chopped) |
| caramelized almonds (see recipe below) | ||
| 1 | Can | mandarin oranges (drained, a large can) |
Dressing
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/2 c. extra virgin olive oil
3 T. raspberry wine vinegar
1 T. parsley (fresh)
1 dash hot chili sauce, RealHot or Tabasco
1 T. sugar
Mix all the ingredients into a salad dressing container. Shake well. Add to salad right before serving.
Carmalized Almonds
1 lg. pkg. slivered almonds
1 T. plus 1 tsp. sugar
Over medium heat, heat almonds and sugar stirring constantly. BE CAREFUL! They brown quickly-do not leave the stove! Once caramelized, cool on wax paper and try to separate almond pieces. Add to salad right before serving.
