MANDARIAN ORANGE CRUNCH SALAD SIMPLE! image

I enjoy Asian foods of all kinds and Recently found myself going out to eat . I often buy Mandarin salads or Strawberry salads.. they are over sized expensive and I love them.. I was too tired to go out and wanted one. so I scrounged thru my pantry and fridge and had the makings.. I made up my Own asian dressing as i had none already bottled. I loved the salad filling and Crunchy noodles together.. as many of you may not have all the ingrediants at home.. improvise! Use other vegetables or sauces or fruit.. make something CLICK .. its one of my favorites Pam Toll

Ingredients

1/4 cup oil (I like avocado oil)
2 Tbs sugar
2 Tbs vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
dash pepper
dash hot sauce
1/4 cup sliced toasted almonds
1 15oz can mandarin oranges, juice drained
16 oz fresh spinach

Steps:

In a jar or salad dressing container, combine the 1/4 cup oil, 2 Tbs sugar, 2 Tbs vinegar, 1/2 tsp salt, a dash of pepper and a dash of hot sauce. Whisk to combine and stir up / shake right before serving as the oil and vinegar will separate.
Heat a dry pan over medium high heat on your stovetop. Add 1/4 cup sliced almonds to the pan and move pan in circular motions so the nuts move around and get toasted evenly. Keep an eye on the almonds so they don't burn! Once toasted and fragrant, transfer the toasted nuts to a cup or plate until you're ready to assemble your salad.
Combine 16 oz fresh spinach with 1 15oz can drained mandarin oranges in a large salad bowl. Add the toasted almonds to the salad. Add as much dressing as desired to the salad and toss to evenly coat the spinach leaves.
Serve immediately!
