Yummy Spinach Salad with Poppyseed Dressing

By Joelene Floyd

Salad ingredients:
1 head lettuce
1 bunch spinach
3/4 lb. sliced mushrooms
1/2 lb. shredded swiss cheese


Sprinkle on top:
1/2 lb. cooked crumbled bacon
1 can mandarin oranges, drained
1/2 C. glazed slivered almonds (To glaze almonds: cook on stovetop over low heat 1/2 cup slivered almonds with 3 Tbs. sugar, stirring for about 5-10 min., adding a 1/2 tsp. of water during the process.) 

Dressing:
1 Tbs. poppy seeds
1/2 C. white vinegar
3/4 C. oil
2 Tbs. mustard (prepared)
1/3 C. sugar
1/3 C. grated onion
3/4 tsp. salt

“I like to use romaine lettuce and to add more fresh veggies to mine like: broccoli, cauliflower, shredded carrots, cranberries or raisins,” Joelene said. “You can make this anyway you wish.”
