Sweet Summer Salad
Mixed greens (lettuce, spinach, etc.)
1 green onion, chopped small (optional)
2 apples, diced
½ cup golden raisins
½ cup dried cranberries
2 cans mandarin oranges
½ cup Candied Pecans (recipe below)
Citrus Dressing (recipe below)
Feta Cheese (optional)
Mix first six ingredients in a large bowl.
Divide salad between as many plates/bowls as you would like. Top each plate with glazed pecans, cheese, and a small amount of salad dressing. (This dressing goes a long way. You won’t need much and you’ll have plenty of leftovers.)
Candied Pecans
½ cup chopped pecans
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
Melt butter and sugar in a pan over medium heat. Toss in the pecans and continue to toss to coat and cook evenly, about 1 minute. Transfer to a sheet tray lined with waxed paper while you prepare the dressing.
Citrus Dressing
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
½ cup sugar
½ tsp dry mustard
¼ tsp dried tarragon leaves
1 Tbsp orange juice concentrate (optional)
salt and pepper to taste
Whisk together all ingredients.
