Once it starts to boil, remove from heat. Pour into a heat-resistant container (I usually use a glass baking dish), cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for about four hours. Remove from fridge and break up the jello into chunks. Place in a large bowl. Add in the pineapple, mandarin oranges, and whipped cream and mix around until everything is combined. Keep refrigerated until you are ready to serve.

Provided by Joanie Simon

Categories     Salad

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

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!
