A very nice salad that took very little time to make. The romaine lettuce didnt look to good in the store so I used a regular head of lettuce and pecans instead of almonds. The dressing was very good and the only thing I would do differently would use a bit less oil. Will be makng this salad again! Thank you hon for sharing this recipe.
