Sorry you folks who keep checking to see if there is something new on this recipe blog - with Rachel's recital it was just too crazy and then I kind of lost some steam - (cooking doldrums). I'm feeling some cooking breeze coming.
1/2 bag baby spinach
1 pint strawberries - sliced - probably 2-3 pieces per strawberry
1/2 red onion finely sliced in rings
3 chicken breasts - cooked and cubed
Carmelized pecans (recipe following)
Toss together with dressing (recipe following)
Carmelizled pecans
Line cookie sheet with tin foil, melt 1 cube unsalted butter, add 1/3 cup sugar and blend together.
Add 1/2 cup fresh squeezed orange juice, 4 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp cayenne pepper, 1/4 tsp mace and 1 pound of pecan halves (yes they do have a little kick to them - perfect with the salad - I also freeze the extras - the whole pound do not go with this one salad). Coat pecans and pour on cookie sheet. Bake for 40 minutes at 250 degrees turning every 10 minutes with a fork.
Dressing:
2 TBS poppy seeds
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup mayo
2 TBS vinegar.
Mix in blender.
