Want to bring a delicious and healthy note to your Spring term? Try this colorful Spring salad with easy-peasy homemade dressing from foodhero.org.
Ingredients
6 ounces spinach (about 7 cups)
3 oranges
1 1⁄2 cups strawberries, halved
1 cup walnut pieces (toasted if desired)
Dressing
1 teaspoon sugar
1⁄4 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 1⁄2 teaspoons vinegar
1 teaspoon finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons salad oil
Directions
- Wash and dry spinach, tear into pieces, and chill.
- To prepare orange: Cut off peel and membrane of outer part of the sections. Using a paring knife gently cut out sections from membrane edges. You end up with orange sections with no outer membrane. It is worth the extra effort to see the vibrant color.
- To make dressing: Combine all ingredients in a jar and shake well or blend in a blender.
- Right before serving, toss orange and strawberries with walnuts and spinach. Add dressing to coat salad. Serve immediately.
- Refrigerate leftovers within 2-3 hours.
