Blaine Salad

This recipe is based on the Blaine Salad served at The Pizza Factory, a Utah-based pizza and pasta joint.

2 heads of romaine lettuce
1/2 cup craisins (dried cranberries)
3/4 cup toasted almonds
poppy seed dressing to taste

optional:
shredded or cubed chicken

Chop romaine lettuce into short strips. Toast almonds in the oven (400 degrees) or on the stovetop (medium heat) in a non-stick skillet. Be careful not to burn the almonds. After letting the almonds cool a little, mix craisins, almonds and dressing with lettuce. To make it a meal, add some leftover shredded chicken.

I'm pretty much in love with this salad. I like it with lemon pepper chicken.
