    Easter Spinach Salad

    It's Easter Eve!

    Or "Preaster" as we call it.

    I have a houseful of family and a fridgeful of food.

    Life is good.

    🙂

    Today I made my traditional Easter dinner of pork loin, asparagus, and baked potatoes...

    I'm not sure why this is our holiday meal, but I've been making it for about 8 years now.

    Today I think I added a new staple: A spinach salad I tossed with a quick orange vinaigrette, dried cranberries, feta and walnuts. It was a hit!

    How do I know?

    No leftovers.

    Oh! And I got a thumbs up from Grandma and Grandpa. 🙂

    Here's what I did…

    Ingredients

    • 2 teaspoon of olive oil
    • 1 Small Orange (Cutie)
    • Pinch of Kosher Salt
    • 1 Bag of Spinach
    • 30g Dried Cranberries
    • 30g of Chopped Walnuts
    • 30g Crumbled Feta Cheese

    Instructions

    Zest the orange then peel, separate the sections and chop.

    Add the zest, oil, orange segments and a pinch of salt to a bowl and whisk everything together. Make sure to smash the orange a bit squeezing out the juice.

    Toss the spinach with the orange oil mixture until all the leaves glisten a bit with the dressing.

    Add the rest of the ingredients and toss again.

    Serve to your hungry family. 🙂

    Happy Easter!

      Love my spinach. I use it instead of lettuce in salads in sandwiches. It is higher in vitamins and minerals. The benefits for me are also that is it high in magnisium content. Magnisium helps to promote muscle relaxation. It saves me having to take too many magnisium supplements.

      Thanks for the salad recipe. Definately one for me to try.
