My version. I chose their Balsamic Vinegar Dressing and bought a pint of theirs for $3.25, to take home.
(I tried to duplicate it below) You can definitely taste the apple cider vinegar in theirs and it’s sweetness. Honey Mustard Dressing
would be a good choice also
9-oz. bag Spring Mix Salad Greens (romaine, iceberg, shredded carrots, red cabbage)
1 medium red onion,
sliced and separated into rings
4-oz. cup mandarin oranges (they come in a pkg. of 4, 4-oz. cups, on the fruit isle)To
1 pint fresh
strawberries
Sweet Cherry tomatoes
Pecans or Walnuts (see “tips”)
Dried Cranberries
Bleu Cheese Crumbles, 1 small tub
1 medium size chicken
breast, sprinkled well with Greek Seasoning and cooked. Then sliced into 4 “fingers” (we cook our chicken on the George Forman) OR
you could just buy chicken tenders
Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing (or your choice)
The following directions make a lot. Use the
amounts at your discretion, as for an entrée or side salad. I didn’t measure, I just scatter what I thought looked good, keeping things
in layers. Don’t toss until you’re at the table ready to eat. It’s pretty in layers.
In this order:
A bed of lettuce
Scatter:
1 red onion
ring, separated
Mandarin oranges slices
3 or 4 sliced strawberries
3 or 4 Cherry tomatoes, cut in half
Small handful toasted nuts
Dried
cranberries
About ¼ cup blue cheese crumbles
Pour the desired amount of dressing evenly over salad (1/4 to 1/3rd cup)
Then place the
chicken strips on top.
Balsamic Vinagrette:
Whisk together:
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 - 1½ tsp. light corn syrup
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp.
black pepper
1/8 tsp. garlic powder
Slowly whisk in ¼ cup ex-virgin olive oil
Pour into a salad dressing carafe and shake well
Note:
the corn syrup not only sweetens the dressing but helps to thicken it.
Turtle Cookies
A bar cookie that will bring you raves!

1 cup pecan halves
2/3 cup butter

for one minute. Pour over pecans. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes. Then immediately scatter the chocolate chips evenly over top. Allow them
to melt slightly for a couple of minutes, then “swirl” them, leaving some whole for a marbled look. (Do not spread them!) Cool
