Recipe provided by Mary Jane Ritter

cranberry pear salad

INGREDIENTS:

Romaine Lettuce (at least one head)
1 cup shredded swiss cheese (I often substitute parmesan)
1 cup chopped almonds or cashews
½ cup dried cranberries
1 red apple
1 pear

Dressing:
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 Tablespoon poppyseeds
2 teaspoons grated onion
2/3 cup salad oil
1/3 cup lemon juice
½ cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt

Dressing can be made ahead and the apples and pears can be chopped ahead too!!! Just toss them with a little lemon juice, it is in the dressing anyway, and put aside so they won’t brown!
