Ingredients
6oz bag Baby Spinach
12oz bag Veggie Lover's Salad
3/4 cup dried, chopped Apricots
1/2 cup dried, chopped Mangoes
1 cup blue cheese crumbled
1apple sliced
1 cup candied pecans (see recipe below - you'll have leftovers) - or you can buy them.

Candied Pecans
Melt a little butter (3-4 T) and some brown or white sugar (1/4 cup or a bit less) on the stove top
in a large pan. Stir until the sugar is well-dissolved. Stir in 2 cups of pecans. Once the nuts are
well-coated with the butter/sugar mixture, transfer them to a 9×13 glass baking dish. Bake at low
temps (250/275 degrees) for a couple of hours, or until they reach desired crispiness, stirring
every 1/2 hour. Transfer to waxed paper as soon as you take them out of the oven so they can
cool and dry well.

mangoes, blue cheese and pecans. Toss gently. Serve with salad dressing of your choice.
