Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• 1 Package Fresh Spinach for 10 (use 1 or 2 bags depending on size)
• 1 Large Basket Strawberries, sliced (if not real sweet, put a little sugar over them and let sit for awhile)
• 1 Red Onion sliced thin
• 3/4 Cup Glazed Sliced Almonds
• 1/2 Cup Sugar

1. Over moderate heat in a non-stick pan, put almonds and sugar, stirring until sugar melts and coats the almonds. Remove immediately and put on foil until cool. Break into small pieces.
2. Dressing: 1 cruet of Good Seasons Italian Dressing made with Balsamic Vinegar. Add 5 TBS of sugar to cruet and shake.
3. Toss all ingredients and enjoy!

Tips & Warnings

• If you wish to cut down on the amount of sugar, you may substitute with Splenda in the dressing.
• Be careful not to burn the almonds. Just when you think nothing is going to happen, the sugar will begin to caramelize. Make sure you stir constantly.
