Strawberry Spinach Salad

This is a great Summer salad because it is loaded with fresh berries and has a fresh lemon poppy seed dressing. If you wanted to serve it as an entree you could top it with grilled chicken breast.

Ingredients:

Dressing:
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup superfine sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds
Salad:
  • 6 oz package baby spinach
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 8 oz strawberries, sliced
  • 1/2  cup blueberries
  • 1/2 cup raspberries
  • 1/2 small red onion, sliced thin
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, sliced
Combine all of the ingredients for the dressing and mix well. Cover and refrigerate until needed. Place all of the ingredients for the salad in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over top, toss and serve. Serves about 8.
