MANDARIN ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• In a jar or salad dressing container, combine the 1/4 cup oil, 2 Tbs sugar, 2 Tbs vinegar, 1/2 tsp salt, a dash of pepper and a dash of hot sauce. Whisk to combine and stir up / shake right before serving as the oil and vinegar will separate.
• Heat a dry pan over medium high heat on your stovetop. Add 1/4 cup sliced almonds to the pan and move pan in circular motions so the nuts move around and get toasted evenly. Keep an eye on the almonds so they don't burn! Once toasted and fragrant, transfer the toasted nuts to a cup or plate until you're ready to assemble your salad.
