SPINACH SALAD WITH LEMON AND MINT
This salad is a snip, but then one would hardly expect a salad to cause trouble. Using a lemon rather than just lemon juice as an ingredient makes for the most fabulous salad regardless of leaves. And by all means, serve it as a starter rather than a follow-up on the main course. It is fresh, sharp, vegan and delicious.

BABY SPINACH SALAD WITH LEMON AND PARMESAN
I love simple, yet delicious, recipes and this one qualifies for that description. This is perfect for spring and is an excellent recipe for low-carbers. Be sure to use very fresh baby spinach for this salad. I found this in the Chicago Trib's 'Good Eating' section and they give credit to "The Modern Vegetarian Kitchen" by Peter Berley and Melissa Clark.
