Directions:
For dressing, bring water, sugar, and vinegar to a boil. Take off heat and let cool. Add mayo until creamy.

Combine lettuce and whatever fruit you want to add. To make sugared almonds, heat almonds in a saucepan. Add about 1/8 cup sugar to ½ cup nuts, continuously stirring until the sugar caramelizes. Spread out on wax paper to cool so they don’t clump together. Add to salad when cooled.

A little dressing goes a long way, so I usually half the dressing recipe. Extra dressing lasts up to a month in the fridge.
