1/2 to 1 head romaine lettuce,
in bite size pieces
1/3 cup slivered almonds, toasted
In a pan over low heat, coat the almonds with the brown sugar. You may need a few drops of water to help melt the sugar. Cool and break up into small pieces.
Combine dressing ingredients in a jar. Shake well and let sit for a while to develop flavor.
Just before serving, dress lettuce. Then add celery, onions, orange and almonds and mix gently.
Poster's Notes:
This is one of my most popular salads. I take it everywhere. I think it is the crunchiness of the sugared almonds that makes this so delicious. I usually make a large quantity of almonds to keep on hand. The quantity of
dressing is more than enough for 1 salad.
