    Green: Spinach-Strawberry Salad II


    Source of Recipe


    yankeemagazine.com

    Recipe Introduction


    Not your usual spinach salad, but a winning combination of strawberries and spinach tossed with a crunchy sweet-sour poppy-seed dressing. This goes over big, even with those who aren't usually tossed-salad fans. It's bright and pretty, too -- perfect for a quick lunch or supper, or for a small party.


    List of Ingredients




    1/2 cup white sugar
    2 tablespoons sesame seeds
    1 tablespoon poppy seeds
    1-1/2 teaspoons minced onion
    1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
    1/4 teaspoon paprika
    1/2 cup vegetable oil
    1/4 cup cider vinegar
    1 bag (10 ounces) fresh spinach

    Recipe



    In a blender, combine the sugar, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, onion, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, oil, and vinegar. Blend well. If the dressing seems thick, add a few drops of water.

    Remove the stems from the spinach and tear the leaves into bite-size pieces. Arrange them on individual salad plates or in a salad bowl. Arrange the strawberries on top. Drizzle the dressing over the strawberries and serve.

    Serves 6-8

    NOTES: It's terrific with raspberry vinagrette too and blue cheese crumbles.
