Caesar Salad

I thought that I would add this so I can always find it. My Husband said that he was worried about not liking it but then had seconds. He sometimes tries to spare my feelings but he will never take seconds if he doesn't like it.

Ingredients:
4 cups chopped Romaine Lettuce
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1-2 cups croutons
Caesar Dressing enough to coat (recipe below)
Directions:
Dump ingredients into bowl and toss.

Strawberry Spinach Salad

This is a favorite side salad among my family members.

Ingredients:
bag of spinach
1 pint sliced strawberries
1 cup chopped pecans (you can use walnuts if you don't have pecans)
2 Tbs maple syrup
small red onion sliced (optional)

Directions:
Put Spinach and Sliced Strawberries in a mixing bowl. Caramelize Pecans in a skillet with
Maple syrup(I have also at times just bought caramelized pecans in the store). When Pecan's are done add them to the mixing bowl. At this point if you like you can add the Red Onion. Next make Poppy Seed Dressing. Add Dressing just before serving to prevent spinach from wilting.

Poppy Seed Dressing

Ingredients:
1/2 c mayo
1 1/2 tsp poppy seeds
1 1/2 tsp sugar
2 Tbsp milk
1 tsp lime juice or vinegar

Directions:
In Blender mix ingredients for Dressing together.
