SUMMER SALAD

Romaine lettuce
sliced strawberries
1/2 apple, cubed
1 small can Mondrian oranges
1/4- 1/2 cup almonds (depending on how big your salad is)
2-3 tbsp. sugar

Mix everything together in large salad bowl. To make the candied almonds: melt sugar in saucepan, stirring continuously. When sugar is melted, immediately remove from heat and add almonds until all are coated.

Poppy Seed dressing:

3/4 C sugar
1 T dry mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 c cider vinegar
1 C vegetable oil
1 T poppy seeds

In medium sized bowl, combine sugar, mustard, salt, vinegar. Using portable mixer, beat in oil gradually until mixture is think and smooth. Stir in poppy seeds and refrigerate.

NOTE: In the salad you can also use avocados, craisins, blueberries if you would like. Also you can use the store brand Brianna's poppy seed dressing if you don't have time to make it. I do that a lot.
