Spinach Strawberry Salad image

Spinach and strawberries what an odd combination for a recipe. That is what I thought before trying this the first time. Now I get many requests to bring this for dinner parties. The raspberry wine vinegar adds a marvelous taste, and compliments the first two ingredients. This salad is very eye pleasing in crystal.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb spinach (I pinch off the larger stems)
1 pint strawberry, sliced set a few aside (egg slicer works wonders)
1/2 cup pecans, toasted
1/3 cup roland raspberry red wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar or 1/2 cup sugar substitute
1 teaspoon dry mustard
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons poppy seeds

Steps:

  • Toast pecans over low heat, set aside to cool.
  • Combine dressing ingredients and shake well.
  • Toss and garnish with a few sliced strawberries.
  • Serve immediately.
  • (Thanks to Chef #320254's review I'm updating this) If you'd like, use a high speed mini-mixer to emulsify the dressing.
  • Roland, makes a Raspberry Flavored Wine Vinegar.
