Strawberry Spinach Salad


I'm really into baby spinach right now.

I bought this tub of it at Sam's.


And then I made this salad.

It had strawberries


cucumbers


pine nuts


and this super-yummy dressing that I just discovered at the grocery.


It's Marzetti's Simply Dressed Strawberry Poppyseed dressing.

I wonder what else I should put this on, because it's so good!  It's in the refrigerator section of the produce, and if I'm not going to make my own dressing, then I'm definitely going to buy it from the refrigerated section.

There's no comparison, people.  But it would be really great to make your own dressing for this salad.  Something with sugar, apple cider vinegar and poppyseeds would be perfect.

And in case you think this salad looks too girlie, I fed it to three men and they liked it.

Strawberry Spinach Salad


10 oz. package baby spinach leaves
1 lb. strawberries, sliced
1 English cucumber, quartered lengthwise and sliced thin across
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
Marzetti's Strawberry Poppyseed salad dressing (or balsamic vinaigrette or homemade poppyseed dressing)

Toss all ingredients together and toss with the dressing about 20 minutes before serving.
