Spring Salad with Maple Vinaigarette

1 bowl of mixed greens
1 container of mandarin oranges drained (I get the snack pack ones for this)
1/4-1/3 cup crumbled Feta cheese
1 small granny smith apple or your favorite, diced
1/4 cup roughly chopped pecans or candied pecans.

Vinaigrette:

1/2 cup vegetable oil (I use extra-light Bertolli olive oil)
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3 TBS real maple syrup
1 tsp. honey dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. garlic salt

Place in cruet or salad dressing shaker. Shake well. Chill. Shake before using.

Place salad ingredients in bowl as listed. Add dressing to taste and toss. Usually I can get two salads from one recipe of dressing.
