Dried cranberries add color and cashews bring fun crunch to this pretty salad. “It’s great for a covered-dish dinner, but can also be served at luncheons with the girls,” writes Darlene Hoffman of Augusta, Georgia. “I like to serve it with crusty rolls.”

  • 1 package (10 ounces) hearts of romaine salad mix
  • 1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
  • 1 cup lightly salted cashews
  • 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 cup shredded smoked Swiss cheese
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
  • 3/4 cup poppy seed salad dressing

Directions
