BEET, MANDARIN ORANGE AND SPINACH SALAD



Beet, Mandarin Orange and Spinach Salad image

People seem to either hate or love beets -- I would guess you like them because you have chosen this recipe to look at. (The first recipe calls for canned beets; sometimes I buy fresh beets and cook them -- this variation is after the canned beet recipe.) When using the fresh beet recipe, I make the beets ahead of time to allow for cooling in the fridge and then just cut them up when assembling the salad.

HUDSONS SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD



HUDSONS SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD image

When I was young my mom and I went to a popular department store and ate at their lunch counter. They had a house spinach salad to die for. I was so lucky to acquire the recipe when I got married. This has been a salad I have used for ladies luncheons that I have catered. But, I have found that when I serve this with a steak...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

fresh baby spinach enough for 8 servings
3 small cans mandarin oranges, drained well
1 c slivered almonds
1/2 c sugar
1/2 tsp dry mustard
3 Tbsp white vinegar
3 Tbsp *onion juice
1/2 c vegetable oil
3 Tbsp seseme seeds
arrange spinach, oranges and almonds on 8 plates

Steps:

  • 1. 1.Mix mustard, sugar, salt and vinegar 2.Add onion juice and stir 3.Add oil, slowly whisking constantly until blended 4.Add seseme seeds 5.Beat with mixer 2 minutes
  • 2. NOTE: A little drizzle over the spinach salad is all you need. This is NOT a dressing that you pour over all the salad. This makes a 1 cup amount and should drizzle 8 servings of salad.
  • 3. *Onion juice is found in a tall bottle packaged in a box. It's found in the spice section. It's expensive but will make several cups of this dressing.
  • 4. Many people sprinkle bacon over spinach salad but this would not do with this salad. It's unusual flavor would not be enhanced with bacon.

MANDARIN ORANGE AND SPINACH SALAD



Mandarin Orange and Spinach Salad image

This is a beautiful tossed salad with spinach, romaine, and mandarin oranges with a sweet, sour, slightly spicy dressing. To top it all off, glazed sliced almonds. I first made this in culinary school, and I have made it many times. It is great for entertaining. The mandarin oranges' color just "pops" against the greens. Time includes chill time for the dressing.

Time 1h10m

Yield 1 large salad, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup oil
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (more or less Tabasco is best for this as it just brings some heat to the party)
1 dash black pepper
1/2 cup sliced almonds
3 tablespoons sugar
4 cups torn romaine lettuce
4 cups torn spinach leaves (or any combination of lettuces)
1 cup sliced celery
1 cup sliced green onion
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained

Steps:

  • In jar with tight-fitting lid, combine all dressing ingredients; shake well. Refrigerate 1 hour.
  • In skillet, cook almonds and sugar over medium low heat until sugar melts and coats almonds, stirring frequently. Cool; break apart.
  • Combine the rest of the salad ingredients.
  • Toss with dressing and top with almonds--I prefer to top the salad, and at the last minute, as opposed to tossing the almonds in the salad to keep the sugar from being "washed off" by the dressing.

BABY SPINACH SALAD WITH MANDARIN ORANGE AND RED ONIONS



Baby Spinach Salad With Mandarin Orange and Red Onions image

This is a Rachael Ray recipe. I find it easier to make the dressing with my blender, rather than whisking it. That way, the orange marmalade is better incorporated.

SPINACH AND MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD WITH POPPYSEED DRESSING



Spinach and Mandarin Orange Salad With Poppyseed Dressing image

This salad is one I've made for years. It is quick, easy, includes just the right dressing and if you add some chunked chicken, you go from a very nice (fancy) side salad to a great main dish!!

Provided by Tinks599

Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 5m

Yield 4 Side salads (or 2 full salads), 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups baby spinach leaves
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1 (6 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3 tablespoons poppy seeds
4 tablespoons honey

Steps:

  • Make your dressing first:.
  • Add equal parts yogurt, mayonnaise and mix well.
  • Add the honey and mix inches Adjust this to your tastes. It is generally lightly sweet and rounds out the flavors of the mayo and yogurt.
  • Add the poppy seeds, mix in (if you don't have seeds, don't sweat it, they give a bit of texture but I have wanted this salad and run out and it is fine without it -- )
  • Salad:
  • Either mix the spinach, sliced water chestnuts and mandarin oranges, or make this directly on the plate. I usually break the water chestnuts because about a 1/2 slice and one mandarin orange plus a fork full of spinach leaves seems to be about perfect.
  • Top with the dressing.
  • See! Isn't that easy? Five minutes!
