SWEET AND SOUR CRUNCHY SPINACH SALAD



Sweet and Sour Crunchy Spinach Salad image

This is a nice summer salad with a very unique blend of flavors and textures. I always serve the dressing on the side so that the salad doesn't get soggy, and you can prepare this hours ahead of time. Before serving, you may need to whisk the dressing to blend the vinegar and oil, or use a shaker. Yummy:)

SWEET & CRUNCHY SPINACH SALAD

I got this off Aunt Mid's Spinach bag. It's very tasty and light! The dressing it calls for is Hendrickson's Sweet Vinegar & Olive Oil dressing. But I'm sure any nice light tasting dressing would be fine.

CRISPY SPINACH



Crispy Spinach image

Something yummy and different. The trick is to have the oil really hot before putting the spinach in and the spinach will not absorb a lot of oil. It is a good starter as it is light. THe oil should be brought back to the same temperature between each batch.
