Christmas Salad

1 head iceberg lettuce
1 head romaine lettuce
2 c. thinly sliced celery
4 green onions, thinly sliced
2 - 11 oz. cans of mandarin oranges
1 large pomagranite (seeds of)
3/4 c. sliced almonds
1/3 c. sugar

Dressing
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 c. sugar
6 drops of Tabasco sauce
2 Tbsp. chopped parsley, fresh (optional)
1 dash pepper
1/4 c. rice vinegar
1/2 c. vegetable oil

1. In a small pan on med. low heat, mix sugar and almonds. Melt (this takes a while and I end up adding a little water) then spread out to cool on a plate.
2. Mix all dressings ingredients in blender.
3. Mix salad ingredients. *(Add, oranges, pomagranites, sugar almonds, and dressing just before serving) (salad will go down considerably with dressing on it.)
