STRAWBERRY SPINACH WON TON SALAD

Strawberry Spinach Won Ton Salad image

My sister's friend caters, and gave her this recipe. I've yet to have someone try it and not rave about it! You can substitute raspberries for the strawberries as well. I've also sprayed my won-tons with olive oil and baked them at 400* for 5 minutes instead of deep frying them.
