Light, tasty lettuce salad with dried cranberries and toasted pecans and a poppy/sesame seed dressing. This is a favorite of friends and family. I serve this at least twice a week. Yummmmm!

- 1/4 tsp. paprika shopping list

How to make it
- Heat oven to 325 degrees, place pecans on a cookie sheet and bake for 6-8 minutes or until pecans are lightly toasted. (Watch pecans close, they can brown very quickly) Cool and chop lightly.

This really is best with the vegtable oil as stated in recipe...I switched up and used olive oil...olive flavor was too strong for this light tasting dressing...best with the good ol' veg oil like it is written.
