Wonderful change for a Salad!What a great blend of tastes, Oranges, Spinach and Italian Dressing!Plus it's lo-cal and okay for Diabetics!This makes a double batch of Dressing, so you can keep half of it, covered in the frig for a quick salad anytime! (This Dressing is also great with grilled chicken! You can use other Veggies with it also!) This was a featured recipe from Mr. Food. We love it...hope you try it!
