spinach salad

this is my favorite salad. probably because it has fruit in it. it's very easy, and there's no real method to the madness. this would be great with cubed grilled chicken or leftover turkey from thanksgiving.

3 parts baby spinach
1 part craisins
1 part mandarin oranges
1 part candied almonds*
kraft poppyseed dressing

*to make candied almonds just mix some sugar and chopped almonds {if you like more "candy" coating use more sugar} in a small fry pan over medium heat. stir constantly until the sugar starts to melt and stick to the almonds. you want the almonds to be a light to medium caramel color. remove from heat and cool.
