Ingredients

Salad:

1 (15-ounce) can Mandarin oranges

5 ounces pre-washed spring greens

2 cups fresh strawberries, quartered

1/2 pint blueberries

Dressing:

1/4 cup Champagne wine vinegar

1/3 cup reserved Mandarin orange juice

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons sugar

1/4 cup white chocolate chips

3 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. Drain Mandarin oranges and reserve juice. In a large bowl, combine salad greens and fruit. Set aside.
  2. To make the dressing, in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine vinegar, 1/3 cup reserved Mandarin juice, salt, and sugar. Gently heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat. Stir in white chocolate until melted. Set aside to cool. Do not refrigerate, as white chocolate will set.
  3. Before serving, slowly whisk in olive oil. Spoon desired amount over salad and toss. Serve remaining dressing on side.

Some friends had us over for dinner last night and served this salad. It was wonderful...not at all waxy or odd textured like some of the other reviews. She did use Ghiradelli chocolate b/c it melts better. Maybe that was the problem with some of the other attempts. It was delicious. Even my husband who does not like anything sweet loved it! She did use spinach instead of green to help stand up to the dressing being a little warm. Wonderful dressing and I can't wait to make this myself!
