Directions
Spinach/Strawberry Salad, An absolutely delightful and tasty salad, especially when fresh baby spinach and strawberries are available This recipe was given to me by a famous Chef in Palm Springs, CA This is a must to make , This is really a marvelous salad It’s one of my daughter’s favorites! I very thinly sliced red onions which I think gave it a sweet and sour flavor Love the nuts method of toasting it in the pan with sugar It’s a Keeper! Thank you Uncle Bill, I took this salad to a sports banquet tonight and it was delicious! I made it as listed, with one exception I took another reviewer’s suggestion and mixed in hearts of romanie since I am a crunch girl used one bag of baby spinach and one of lettuce, and doubled the dressing On the way to the event, I was worried that there wasn’t enough dressing, but it was fine There was only a small amount left and I threw some grilled chicken in with it and plan to eat it for lunch tomorrow!
