Why I Love This Recipe

This salad was brought to a POT LUCK at work. One of my co-workers made it and I fell in love with it. It is a little intricate to make, however it is REALLY worth it. :o) Enjoy!


Ingredients You'll Need

2 Bags Hearts of Romaine Lettuce (or whatever lettuce you like to use)
1 package shaved almonds
Molases
Brown Sugar
Feta Cheese
Diced Roma Tomatoes (4-5 is usually enough)
1 packet Italian Seasoning
1 bottle Balsalmic Vinegrette Salad Dressing


Directions

-Spread almonds in a glass baking dish and place in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes to brown.


-Remove from oven and drizzle with molases.


-Coat top with brown sugar.


-Put back in 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes.


-Remove and stir around coating almonds. (I usually add a little more Brown Sugar at this point, but you dont have to.)


-Place back in oven for another 10 minutes or so.


-Remove and tranfer almond mixture to wax or parchment paper to dry.


-You want them to dry in SMALL clusters like crutons.
