A sweet departure, indeed! This is a great addition to any summer meal. The recipe doesn't make a whole lot of dressing, so I would recommend at least doubling it... it's that good.

1 c sliced almonds
4 Tbsp sugar
3 bunch romaine lettuce head
2 green onions

1 can(s) mandarin oranges, drained
DRESSING
1/2 tsp salt
dash pepper
1/4 c vegetable oil
2 Tbsp vinegar
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • 1. Mix all dressing ingredients together and chill in refrigerator. In small pan over medium heat cook almonds and sugar, stirring constantly, until almonds are coated and sugar is dissolved. Watch carefully as they burn easily! The almonds should be just a little brown.
