This is a great salad to serve when you have company.

Prepare the Dressing
1/2 cup Oil
1/4 cup Vinegar (I used Balsamic Vinegar)
1/4 cup Sugar
2 Tbsp. Parsley
1/2 tsp. Salt
Pepper or Tobasco sauce to taste.

Combine in a jar and shake well.

Brown the Almonds
1/2 cup sliced Almonds
4 tsp. Sugar
1 tsp. Water

Mix in a small fry pan. Over low heat, stir until almonds are browned.
NOTE: You might want to double the almond ingredients because these almonds are so good, you will probably want to eat a couple handfuls before adding them to your salad greens! Good Grief...Just triple it!!!

Prepare the Salad Vegetables1 head Iceberg Lettuce (chop or shred)
1/2 head Romaine Lettuce (chop or shred)
1 1/2 cup Chopped Celery
Chopped Scallions or green onions
16 ox can Mandarin Oranges (drained)

Combine salad vegetables. Add browned almonds. Toss with dressing.

YUM!
