This is a great, quick salad that goes with lots of meals. You could add chicken (chopped fried chicken strips or grilled chicken strips) to make a complete meal.

How To Make citrus almond salad

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Coat the almonds in butter and toast until brown. Watch them closely. They will overcook and burn quickly. The rule is if you smell them, they are overcooked.
Step 3

Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces in a salad bowl.
Step 4

Mix in the mandarin oranges and the almonds.
Step 5

Mix until coated. Chill in the refrigerator for a little while before serving.
