Last night's dinner definitely had one shining star: the spinach apple salad. (The below post which is also labeled with today's date was actually written yesterday, March 15th.) Unfortunately, because I had a guest and was sort of entertaining, I failed to take photos of this beautiful delicious salad. And then after dinner I promptly ate all of the leftovers, again missing an opportunity to photograph. But, I will DEFINITELY be adding this salad to my regular repertoire so I'm sure I will have a photo to add in the future. For now, here's the recipe.
Spinach Apple Salad Recipe
baby spinach (bag of pre-washed leaves)
apple, I used 2 Fiji apples, sliced into thin wedges
red onion, sliced thin with mandolin
pecans, toasted with maple sugar & olive oil (or butter if you're not keeping it vegan)
kosher salt & fresh cracked pepper to taste
red grapes, halved (I forgot to purchase grapes, but I'm sure they'd be a great addition!)
dressing, whisked together and tossed over spinach just before serving:
3 tbs extra virgin olive oil
2 tbs apple cider vinegar
1 tbs white wine vinegar
1/2 tsp sugar
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp mustard of choice
Can't wait to make this salad again!
