Heidi's salad
I made candied walnuts (brown the walnuts & then heat up a sugar/cinnamon/milk/salt/vanilla mixture) what to do with it?
I put them in a salad w/ chopped apples craisens, celery, spinach, romain hearts & iceburg lettuce. Then I made this salad dressing! LOL - it's so funny - it's 1/2 cup of mayo, 1/4 cup of BOYSENBERRY SYRUP a splash of lemon juice, two splashes of red wine vinegar and that made about the BEST salad I've EVER had - oh - I threw some grilled chicken in there (left overs from the other night!)
**Yep, just cleaning out my Word program of all the recipes stashed here and there.... obviously C/P directly from her e-mail.
