Sugar Toasted Almond Spinach Salad

Sugar Toasted Almond Spinach Salad
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup salad oil
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 3/4 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 head romaine lettuce, torn into bite sized pieces
  • 1 (6 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
  • 3/4 pound sliced mushrooms
  • 3/4 pound shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 1 cup mandarin oranges


  1. Combine almonds and sugar in a small skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir until sugar is melted over almonds, about 3 minutes. Spread almonds in a single layer on waxed paper to cool.
  2. To make the salad dressing, whisk together the vinegar, salad oil, sugar, mustard, poppy seeds, and salt in a bowl; set aside.
