Time 22m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 serving cooking spray
½ cup toasted unsalted almonds
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 head romaine lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces
1 pint fresh blackberries
½ cup crumbled low-fat feta cheese
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 ½ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • Crush almonds into smaller pieces with a mortar and pestle or with a rolling pin.
  • Spread almonds in a single layer in a large skillet over high heat. Add corn syrup; cook, stirring gently to prevent almonds from clumping together, until corn syrup coats almonds, 2 to 3 minutes. Spread almonds on the prepared baking sheet. Cool until hardened and set.
  • Toss lettuce, blackberries, and feta cheese together in a large bowl.
  • Pour lemon juice into a small bowl. Drizzle in olive oil, whisking constantly until blended into the lemon juice. Whisk sesame oil into the dressing.
  • Break up cooled almonds and add to the salad. Mix dressing into the salad.
