So many people seek out this salad at get-togethers, I always have a couple giant bowls waiting. A guest who said she didn't like salads tried this one and ended up taking the leftovers home. I rank it in the top 10 of the best recipes I've collected.
Ingredients:
1 package (3 ounces) ramen noodles
2 packages (5 ounces each) spring mix salad greens
1 head iceberg lettuce, torn
1 can (15 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/3 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1 small onion, cut into wedges
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
1 cup canola oil

Directions:
1. Crush ramen noodles; discard seasoning packet. In a large salad bowl, toss the greens, lettuce, noodles, oranges and almonds; set aside.
2. For dressing, in a blender, combine the vinegar, sugar, onion, salt and mustard; cover and process until smooth. While processing, gradually add oil in a steady stream. Stir in poppy seeds. Serve with salad. Yield: 26 servings (1-3/4 cups dressing).
