salads with spinach

various dates

I regularly buy the lettuces and baby spinach 'spring mix' (Pic1) at the local grocery stores; often with extra baby spinach separately. Spinach is one of the many leafy vegetables that I use for tossed salads.

You can add just about anything else you'd care to eat with leafy greens.

INGREDIENTS

This is what you need for 2 servings:

1/4 lb. baby spinach
1/4 lb. other leafy greens e.g. lettuce mix

Pic1: 'spring mix' lettuces and baby spinach

Directions

Pic2: washing raw spinach
Pic3: cleaned
Pic4: salad mix

Wash the greens. Drain.
I cut away the central stem of the spinach leaves because it is more fibrous than the leaf.
Cut the greens coarsely.

Pic5: tossed salad with coleslaw mix, lettuce mix, baby spinach, nuts, crumbled blue cheese
Pic6: ham, cheddar cheese, nuts, strawberries
Pic7: raisins, strawberries, mozzarella cheese, 1000-island dressing

Add salad dressing of your choice.
Add extras as desired.
Nuts and seeds, tomatoes, mushrooms, raisins, craisins, etc. are all optional.
Toss the salad to mix everything.
Serve as a separate salad before the meal, or as a side dish with the meal.
Enjoy.
