Recipe: |
My husband doesn't care for poppy seeds, so I came up with the dressing as a change to that most commonly seen with spinach and strawberry salad.
Ingredients:
1 bag (about 12 oz.) baby spinach leaves
1 pt. fresh strawberries, cleaned/hulled and sliced
dressing:
˝ small sized red onion, minced (about 2 Tlb.)
˝ C. extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 C. red wine vinegar
˝ tsp. dry mustard (powder)
1 Tlb. honey
2 tsp. sesame seeds
dash of fresh ground black pepper
Instructions:
Toss spinach and strawberries together in large bowl.
Prepared salad dressing by mixing all dressing ingredients together. Chill until ready to use and refrigerate left over dressing for up to 1 week.
When ready to serve salad, lightly drizzle dressing over salad to coat all but not drown; toss well and serve.
