a Cookbook Called “Simply Classic”
List of Ingredients
Glazed Pecans
Preheat oven to 325
Line a baking sheet with foil, preferably the non-stick foil.
Combine in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil:
¼ Cup Margarine
¼ Cup White Karo
2 Tbl. Water
1 tsp. Salt
Add 1 Pound Pecans and stir to completely coat the pecans. Cook for two minutes.
Spread the nuts evenly on the lined baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 10 minutes.
Cool and serve. Chop if desired.
(Note: If you find the pecans are still gummy after they cool, they didn’t cook long enough. Put them back in the oven for a while. Lift one piece out and let it cool. If it hardens, they’re ready. If not, keep them in a while longer.)
Dressing
Combine well:
½ Cup Vegetable Oil
¼ Cup Cider Vinegar
2 Tbl. Sliced Green Onions with the tops
2 Tbl. Lemon Juice, freshly squeezed
1 Tbl. Maple Syrup
¼ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. freshly-ground Pepper
Salad
1 Head Red Leaf Lettuce
1 Head Green Leaf Lettuce
1 Head Bibb Lettuce
2 Red Delicious Apples, sliced into very thin wedges
¼ Cup Glazed Pecans
¼ Cup Blue Cheese, Crumbled
Tear the lettuce into bite-size pieces in a large bowl.
Place the thin apple slices on top of the lettuce.
Sprinkle the glazed pecans and the blue cheese evenly over the lettuce/apple blend.
Drizzle the salad dressing over all. Toss gently and serve immediately.
