Spinach Salad

I hope you all enjoyed your Mother's Day as much as I did!! What a relaxing day it was...at least as much as possible :) My family got together for a BBQ and we were incharge of the salad, so my hubby made it! That just tells you how easy it is to throw together (you did a great job hubby:) )!!

1 10oz bag of Spinach

1 8oz bag of roman lettuce

Swiss cheese (grated)

2 cans mandarin oranges (drained well)

1 bag romaine noodles (crumbled)

Mix above ingredients together. To make candied pecans - you can have whole or half pecans, 4 Tbsp sugar, cook over medium heat for about 5 mins stirring constantly. Cook just until sugar sticks to the pecans in liquid form. Poor onto plate.
