What a delicious spinach salad! That dressing was so creamy and delicious. I made it with only spinach since I had no lettuce. I chose to save my one pepper for another dish. I only had sunflower seeds so I used them. This will be one of my favorite recies of all time and I thank you for sharing it here with us!

Such a lovely photo!! We just need one more thing… The Basil appears to be missing from the ingredients list. If you’ll add it, we’ll be ready to go. When done, click ‘make recipe visible’ and ‘save’ and we’ll get this posted.
Thanks,
