MANDARIN ORANGE AND GREEN SALAD
The ladies at our old church always made this for dinners. When I asked for the recipe, they gave it to me on an old recipe card, written in beautiful cursive script. When reading it, I thought the mix of ingredients sounded odd, but it is absolutely delcious. It's a wonderful green salad that is wonderful for company. It's also good as a main course with a chicken breast on top. Very adaptable - you can add other fruit, too. Strawberries and blueberries.

Tips:
- Utilize Fresh Ingredients: For optimal flavor and texture, opt for fresh, high-quality ingredients. Select crisp greens, juicy oranges, crunchy nuts, and aromatic herbs.
- Segment Oranges Properly: To avoid bitterness, remove the pith (white part) from the oranges before segmenting. Use a sharp knife to cut along the membrane, releasing each segment.
- Dress Salad Just Before Serving: Combine the dressing ingredients in a separate bowl and whisk until well blended. Pour the dressing over the salad just before serving to maintain freshness and prevent wilting.
- Toast Nuts for Enhanced Flavor: Toasting nuts enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Spread nuts on a baking sheet and toast in a preheated oven for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Store Leftovers Properly: If you have leftover salad, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. The dressing should be stored separately and added just before serving.
