Recipe ~ Strawberry Spinach Salad ~ Salad / Brunch

Strawberry Spinach Salad


Ingredients (Salad):


  • 9 c. Torn Spinach
  • 1 pint fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 c. slivered almonds or pecans; may toast them also for a nice taste
Ingredients (Dressing):

  • 1/4 c. Vegetable oil
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. Cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. Chopped red onion
  • 1 tsp. poppy seed
  • 1 tsp. sesame seed
  • 1/4 tsp. paprika
  • 1/8 tsp. Worcestershire sauce


Directions:

Put all the ingredients in a shaker and mix well, or you can also put them in a blender.

** The blender will create more on a whipped dressing that is fluffy and doesn't separate when it sits like the other method that sits in the shaker.



Notes:

** I usually at least double the dressing recipe.

** I always put more onions than the directions call for, but I like onions.

**Also feel free to try other fruits than just strawberries.

** It is really hard to find strawberries certain times of the year, so try your favorite apple or berry [like raspberries] they do make good substitutes.
