For those hot summer days when you are too lazy to get into a big cooking, but need something refreshing, healthy and satisfying - try this wonderful SPINACH SALAD! My kids hate vegetables, especially green and leafy, but get all excited about this one!
Here is what you need
Baby Spinach - the more the merrier
Olive Oil - extra virgin, cold pressed, please! - about 1/2 cup
Lemon Juice - 3 tbs shall make it
Honey - 3 tbs
Raisins - soaked in boiling water and drained - 1/2 cup
Sliced almonds - roasted with a bit of oil - 1/2 cup
Poppy seeds
Sesame seeds
Salt
Pepper
To make your very own dressing - mix olive oil, lemon juice, honey, seeds, salt and pepper. Here is what your dressing would look like
Now, in a cute bowl mix spinach, raisins and almonds, add your dressing and VOILA! Serve with your favorite steak, or just try it by itself! Bon appetit!
