Fruited Lettuce Salad

Taste of Home Cooking School Spring 2009, p. 47

6 cups torn salad greens

1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained

1 cup green grapes

¼ cup finely chopped onion

2/3 cup sliced almonds

1/3 cup orange juice

1/3 cup canola oil

3 tablespoons white vinegar

1-1/2 teaspoons celery seed

In a large bowl, toss the greens, oranges, grapes, onion and almonds. 

You'd think the onion would feel out of place here but it helps ground the sweeter ingredients.


In a jar with tight-fitting lid, combine the remaining ingredients; shake well. 

These seemed safer for Passover.


Drizzle over salad; toss to coat.

Yummmm drizzle.

My Rating: 4/5 "First of all, the dressing on this is great just by itself. Add to that a fun blend of fruits and vegetables that are sweet and just a little tart and you've got yourself a nice little side dish!"
