Krislee's Strawberry and Feta Green Salad

As promised . . . We all had a great time. Thanks for such an enjoyable reunion, everyone!

1 cup slivered almonds (carmelized in white sugar-optional)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup vegetable oil
1 head romaine lettuce, torn
1 pint fresh strawberries, sliced
1 cup crumbled feta cheese

In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the almonds, stirring frequently, until lightly toasted. (sprinkle about 1/2 cup sugar if carmelizing) Remove from heat, and set aside.
In a bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, raspberry vinegar, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil.
In a large bowl, toss together the toasted (or carmelized) almonds, romaine lettuce, strawberries, and feta cheese. Cover with the dressing mixture, and toss to serve.

You will probably have extra dressing, but just use it on any other yummy green salad for later!
