Lunch: Strawberry Orange Pecan Tossed Salad Recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash hot pepper sauce

Instructions

For dressing, in a small bowl, whisk the oil, sugar, vinegar, parsley, salt and pepper sauce until blended. Cover and refrigerate.
In a large heavy skillet, melt sugar over medium-low heat without stirring until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Add pecans and butter; stir constantly until butter is melted and pecans are coated. Remove from the heat. Pour onto a foil-lined baking sheet; cool completely. Break pecans apart if necessary.
In a salad bowl, combine the spinach, romaine, oranges, celery, strawberries and onions. Just before serving, drizzle with dressing; toss to coat. Top with sugared pecans.
