Description

If you are looking for a cool crisp delicious Spinach Salad that is super easy to put together, this is your recipe!

Ingredients

  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 8 ounces, weight Spinach Leaves, Stemmed And Torn Into Pieces
  • ½  Fuji Apple, Diced
  •  Red Onion, Sliced Very Thin
  • ¼ cups Up To 1/2 Cup Craisens
  • 1 whole Avocado, diced
  • 6 slices Crispy Bacon, Chopped
  • ¼ cups Freshly Grated Or Shaved Parmesan Cheese
  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • 1 cup Canola Or Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Red Onion
  • 1 teaspoon Dry Mustard
  • ½ cups Sugar
  • ⅓ cups Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Poppy Seeds

Preparation

Wash and spin dry the spinach then de-stem and cut or tear into pieces. Place spinach in a large serving bowl and add the rest of the salad ingredients.

Mix all the dressing ingredients in a bowl or salad jar. Place the salad and dressing, separately, in the fridge and right before serving, dress the salad.

Dress and serve immediately.

Serves 6.

Notes:
I use my vegetable peeler to shave the Parmesan cheese.
As with any recipe, you can add or delete any ingredient you prefer. I added the fixings we like in our house, but you might like something different. Never be afraid to change a recipe to make it your own.
