Mom’s Red Salad Dressing

DSC_2406

Lettuce is abundant in my garden right now and I am eating salads for lunch each day.  This is one of my FAVORITE ways to use up some of our garden lettuce.

 

Salad:

Torn lettuce

Drained mandarin oranges

Dried cranberries

Sliced almonds

 

Dressing:

1cup sugar

1/2 cup vegetable, canola or olive oil

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

1/2 cup ketchup

1 teaspoon celery seed

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon onion powder

 

Combine well and Refrigerate.

 

Place lettuce in a bowl. Layer on the oranges, cranberries and almonds.  Drizzle on dressing.

 

ENJOY!
