Orange Walnut Salad


Sorry for the side view.  I got this recipe from my sister years ago.  This time of the year when navel oranges are so sweet and good, it's a wonderful time to make it.  It is easy and it is a delicious salad.

1 Bibb lettuce or lettuce of your choice (tear into bite size pieces)
1 pound fresh spinach (tear into bite size pieces)
2 oranges, peel and section and cut into chunks
1/2 large sweet onion, slice and separate into rings
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons butter

Put first four ingredients into a large bowl.  Saute walnuts into butter until lightly browned.  Add to lettuce mixture and toss with dressing.

Dressing:
1 cup olive oil
1.2 cup sugar
1/2 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion

Mix sugar, vinegar, dry mustard, salt, celery seed, paprika together and whisk until combined.  Then slowly add olive oil until thick.  Stir in finely chopped onions.
