Strawberry Poppy Seed Salad

I'm on a salad kick. I know it's weird, but it's true. It started because this friend visited me.

Hello, Strawberry Poppy Seed Salad. Actually, it's more than "a salad." It's ... incredibly good.

You start with a bag of spring mix, or if you are a giant sissy like me and don't like bitter lettuce, you can substitute for whatever sort of salad mix you like. I am boring and went with Romaine.

Then you throw some mandarin oranges, sliced strawberries, chopped red onions, chopped pecans, and craisins on top.

Mix it up, and you're done. Except for one part, that is. The dressing. Honestly, this salad is pretty good without dressing (As in NONE. Zero. Zip. Zilch dressing.), but it's other-worldly if you use Marzetti Poppyseed dressing.

And now it's perfect.

1. Find a big bowl.

2. Throw the lettuce in it.

3. Throw the oranges, strawberries, red onion, pecans, and craisins in with the lettuce. Toss that salad.
