Spinach and Strawberry Salad


SPINACH AND STRAWBERRY SALAD

I mentioned I would give you the rest of the luncheon menu’s recipes and here is the Spinach Salad. 
(Dessert to come)  This was one of the better salads I have ever made.  Very pretty and so refreshing with the use of spring strawberries.  Everyone went back for seconds. Make your spring table pop with a bright and pretty salad.
 
 1 shallot diced
1  cups strawberries sliced
3 cups spinach leaves¼ cup walnuts roughly chopped
½ large seedless cucumber sliced
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
DRESSING
5 tablespoons olive oil 
2 tablespoons Raspberry vinegar
1 teaspoon aged balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and freshly ground pepper bowl

Mix the salad in a bowl and the dressing in a separate. Just before serving dress the salad and serve.

  
     
 Dress your stable with red, which will bring out the
                       color of the strawberries.
 
 
 
 

TIPS:

·        I used a raspberry vinegar but you can change that up or just use all Balsamic
 
 
 
As always be your own Creative Dump Cook and change this recipe to what YOU have on hand!
