  • ½ cup sliced almonds

  • 3 tablespoons white sugar

  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil

  • 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

  • hot sauce

  • 2 ½ tablespoons white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 cup sliced fresh strawberries

Directions

  1. Heat a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Stir almonds and 3 tablespoons sugar together in the skillet; cook until the sugar has melted and coats the almonds; 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.

  2. Whisk vegetable oil, vinegar, hot sauce, 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Toss spring mix, oranges, strawberries, celery, onion, and parsley together in a large mixing bowl; drizzle the vegetable oil mixture over the lettuce mixture and stir gently to coat.
