Description

This salad is so light and refreshing but also has huge flavor. I don’t know about you, but most of the time for lunch I’m throwing together a salad for one, so that’s how I’ve listed this. But a few adjustments to the quantity of ingredients and it can serve as many as you want.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Baby Spinach
  • ⅓ cups Mandarin Oranges, In Juice
  •  Onion, Thinly Sliced
  • 1 ounce, weight Gorgonzola Cheese, Crumbled
  • ¼  Red Pepper, Chopped
  • 1 slice Bacon Crumbled
  • Croutons (Optional)
  • 1 Tablespoon Balsamic Vinegar
  • 3 teaspoons Juice From Oranges
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Pepper
  • 3 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Preparation

Put baby spinach on a plate. Add mandarin oranges (saving some juice for the vinaigrette), sliced onions, crumbled gorgonzola cheese, chopped red pepper, crumbled bacon and croutons (if desired).

To make the vinaigrette, pour “good” balsamic vinegar into a small bowl. Add juice from the oranges, salt and pepper. Whisk in extra virgin olive oil, and that’s it. Drizzle it over your salad and enjoy!
