Servings: persons

1 cup Vegetable Oil
1/2 cups Red Wine Vinegar
1/4 bulbs Red Onion
4 teaspoons Dry Ground Mustard
1-1/4 cup Granulated Sugar, Divided
1 pinch Salt
3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
2 packages Slivered Almonds

1
Dressing: In a blender add vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, red onion, ground mustard, 1 cup sugar, and a pinch of salt. Puree until smooth and set aside in refrigerator. This recipe makes a lot of dressing, so no need to use all of it on the salad.
2
Caramelized Slivered Almonds: In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add slivered almonds and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir frequently until browned and sugar has dissolved over nuts. Lay flat on baking sheet to cool. Break apart and serve in salad.
3
Bacon: Cook and crumble. I know a pound sounds like a lot of bacon, but trust me here-it's still not enough!
4
Assemble lettuce, bacon, nuts, and Craisins. Pour a bit of dressing into the bowl and evenly coat salad. Serve immediately so that the lettuce doesn't wilt. EAT UP!
