Original Recipe Yield 6 servings

Ingredients

1 cup slivered almonds
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup white sugar
1 (3 ounce) jar bacon bits
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 (10 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves
1/2 head cauliflower, chopped

Directions

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the slivered almonds onto a baking sheet, and toast until the nuts start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, 5 to 10 minutes. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake, because they burn quickly. Once toasted, set the nuts aside to cool to room temperature.
Mix together the mayonnaise, milk, and sugar in a large salad bowl. Stir in the bacon bits and Parmesan cheese until the dressing is well combined and creamy.
Place the spinach leaves, chopped cauliflower, and toasted almonds into the salad bowl, and stir lightly to coat with dressing.
