Ingredients
- 1 head of green or red leaf lettuce (or ½ head of each, roughly chopped bite-size)
- ½ bunch of Italian parsley (leaves only, about ⅔ cup, chopped small (about ⅓ cup chopped))
- 6 clementine or mandarin oranges (peeled, sectioned and then chopped in half)
- ⅓ cup sliced almonds (caramelized or not*)
- ¼ cup light flavored olive oil
- 2 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar or champagne vinegar
- 2 tablespoons white sugar
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Steps
-
Combine the oil, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a small jar and shake to combine.
-
In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, parsley and oranges. Drizzle with just enough dressing to lightly coat the lettuce. (I only used about 1/2 of the dressing for the whole salad.)
-
Toss with tongs or large spoons and then top with almonds. Serve immediately. Store any remaining dressing in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
