Ingredients

  • FOR THE SALAD:
  • 8 ounces, weight Spinach Leaves, Stemmed And Torn Into Pieces
  • 1/2 Fuji Apple, Diced
  • 1/8 Red Onion, Sliced Very Thin
  • 1/4 cups Up To 1/2 Cup Craisens
  • 1 whole Avocado, diced
  • 6 slices Crispy Bacon, Chopped
  • 1/4 cups Freshly Grated Or Shaved Parmesan Cheese
  • FOR THE DRESSING:
  • 1 cup Canola Or Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Minced Red Onion
  • 1 teaspoon Dry Mustard
  • 1/2 cups Sugar
  • 1/3 cups Red Wine Vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons Poppy Seeds

Method

  • Wash and spin dry the spinach then de-stem and cut or tear into pieces. Place spinach in a large serving bowl and add the rest of the salad ingredients.
  • Mix all the dressing ingredients in a bowl or salad jar. Place the salad and dressing, separately, in the fridge and right before serving, dress the salad.
  • Dress and serve immediately.
  • Serves 6.
  • Notes:
  • I use my vegetable peeler to shave the Parmesan cheese.
  • As with any recipe, you can add or delete any ingredient you prefer. I added the fixings we like in our house, but you might like something different. Never be afraid to change a recipe to make it your own.
