Tasty Salads

I love a good salad and have learned the more on top, the better! Here are a couple of recipes from some tasty salads.

Poppy seed Dressing
(This makes a very large recipe. I usually cut the recipe in half.)
1 1/2 c. red wine vinegar
1 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp dry mustard
3 tsp salt
1/2 red onion
1 c. olive oil
2 c. vegetable oil
3 T poppy seed
Combine first 5 ingredients and mix well, then add oil slowly. Add poppy seed when all ingredients are mixed. Dressing will separate between uses, so shake before use.
