BIBB, MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD
Two fairly good sized heads of bibb lettuce, broken into bite sized pieces
1 14 oz can of mandarin orange segments in light syrup
1 small bag of sliced almonds
4-4 green onions, cleaned and sliced in ¼” thicknesses (the green ends can be larger, the white parts very thin)
Fresh ground pepper to taste
Spread sliced almonds evenly on a cookie sheet in a preheated 325 oven for a very few minutes, watching constantly, as they burn in a heartbeat. As soon as they start to look pale tan, remove and let cool. They'll continue to toast until desired flavor is achieved.
When cooled completely (this can be done a day or more ahead), add almonds to lettuce to a large salad bowl. The big multi sized aluminum ones I have are ideal. That way you can use whatever size fits the number of people you're serving. Drain orange segments and add them. Add chopped green onions. Use hands to blend together. Cover with plastic wrap and place in frig to crisp up for several hours while you prepare rest of dinner plans.
When ready to serve, toss with lemon dressing. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more
S & P to taste.
