This is different than your typical spinach and strawberry salad. The dressing is amazing. My friend made it for me after I had Jefferson. It is super yummy.
Salad:
1 head red leaf lettuce
1 pkg. spinach
1/3 c. bacon
1 c. strawberries slices
purple onion chopped (however much you like:)
Sugared nuts:
1/3 c. sugar
1 c. pecans, almonds, cashew, or walnuts (I like pecans)
I usually put the sugar and nuts in a sauce pan and stir over med. heat until the sugar
sticks to the nuts.
After cooking I pour the nuts onto a wax paper to cool then add to the salad.
Dressing:
Mix in a blender
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
3 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 c. oil
1/2 tsp dry mustard
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2. c. strawberry jam
This is AWESOME! I have an abundance of red leaf lettuce and spinach growing in my garden right now. I've been trying to figure out what to make with it, and here you go!
