Simple Salad with Squash Ribbons

There is a simple salad made a little fancy by adding raw Squash Ribbons and a hand full of Marcona Almonds.  If you don’t have Marcona Almonds,  Macadamia nuts will be

just fine.  I used a mandolin to get the squash ribbons nice and thin but feel free to use your knife skills if you don’t have a mandolin.   If you aren’t crazy about the creamy Italian dressing, a nice lemon vinaigrette works as well.
