Spinach Strawberry Salad | This is wonderful. It is appropriate once you are at the berry and nut rung. Omit the nuts and it is still wonderful. Spinach Strawberry Salad 1 pound spinach, washed and stemmed 1 pint sliced strawberries 1 Cup roasted pecan halves- roast 15 minutes at 300 degrees. For the dressing: 1/3 Cup white vinegar 3/4 Cup Splenda 1 ½ tsp. minced onion 1 Cup oil 1 tsp. dry mustard 1 tsp. salt 1 ½ T. poppy seeds Prepare dressing in blender by adding all ingredients but the poppy seeds; stir those in last. Toss spinach in dressing. Place half dressed spinach in a salad bowl then add a layer of strawberries, reserving some for the top. Add rest of spinach and garnish with reserved berries and pecans. Serve immediately. Serves 8-10. This looks beautiful in a clear bowl. Enjoy! | |
