1 head Romaine Lettuce
1 head Red Leaf Lettuce
Purple Onion
1 can Mandarin Oranges
1 quart Sliced Strawberries
2 cups Halved Grapes
3/4 cups Sugar

1 teaspoon Salt

1
Wash, pat dry and prepare salad fixings.
2
Salad dressing can be made ahead and refrigerated or can be used at room temperature right after preparing.
3
Mix sugar, mustard, salt and vineger with a whisk or in a blender or mixer. Gradually add oil while mixing, until dressing develops a creamy consistency. Add poppy seeds and blend till dispersed well.
4
This salad is also good with pieces of fried or grilled chicken, and we also make a meal of it by adding only lettuce to cubed ham, diced boiled eggs and cubes of cheddar cheese. It's wonderful and the recipe is very versatile.
5
When refrigerating the dressing, it tends to separate. So re-blend before serving again. I would imagine this will hold up in the refrigerator nicely for several days, but I wouldn't know. It's usually gone with the first meal!

Enjoy!
