I found this salad on the web and made a couple of changes in it. This was the salad I made on our 25th wedding anniversary! Update: I submitted this recipe to Taste of Home Light & Tasty and it was published in the December/January 2008 issue.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bunch spinach, washed and stemmed (or one package pre-washed baby spinach)
1 purple onion, sliced into rings
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
16 kalamata olives, pitted if desired
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons red wine vinegar
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a non-stick skillet, add olive oil, onion, feta cheese and olives. Saute until onions soften and cheese begins to melt.
  • Add vinegar and remove from heat. Immediately add spinach, turning the spinach with tongs so that it gets evenly coated with dressing in pan (when it begins to wilt it shrinks like crazy).
  • Divide salad between four plates, doing your best to evenly distribute onions and olives.
  • Grind black pepper over the top and serve immediately.
