Strawberry Almond Chicken Salad

I made this salad for my ward recipe club.  My family loves this salad!

2 bags spring mix salad greens

1 pkg. mozzerella/parmesan shredded cheese mix

Toasted or candied slivered almonds (to candy almonds, cook 3/4 cup sugar and small pkg. almonds on stovetop over med. heat stirring constantly until sugar is melted covering almonds.  Spread out on cookie sheet and let cool.  Break up after cooled.)

4-6 chicken breasts cooked and cubed

Sliced strawberries

Can add purple onion slices if wish

Dressing:

1/4 cup purple onion

1 cup sugar

2 t. dry mustard

1 1/2 t. salt

1/2 cup red wine vinegar

Blend dressing ingredients together in a blender and slowly add in 1 cup oil.

Toss salad and dressing together just before serving.  **I usually don't use all of dressing.
