(COPY) IHOP SUPER SPINACH SALAD



(Copy) Ihop Super Spinach Salad image

Not being a big fan of pancakes, I ordered this salad at IHOP when I attended a family breakfast there. Not like any other spinach salad I have had, it is very "loud" and flavorful. It is important that you use the dressing called for, as others have not complimented the salad. This is hearty enough for a dinner salad, and so good there are never leftovers.
