Spinach Salad With Mango Chutney Dressing image

I got this recipe with a jar of "Oak Hill Mango Chutney" in Sacramento, CA, about 12 years ago. I've since moved and can't get that brand, but it works just as well with any other mango chutney. This is a great "whole meal" salad for a light dinner or a brunch item. People love the unusual combination of ingredients. Interestingly, there is no oil in the dressing, but it has a rich mouth-feel. Can't call it low-fat, though!
