Sweet Strawberry Spinach Salad!

Sweet Strawberry Spinach Salad...whew, say that five times fast!

We have been trying to eat more salads and I fell upon this recipe. This salad isn't necessarily healthy but yum, tasty! If you are in the mood for a sweet treat that you won't entirely regret, I highly recommend this dish! Enjoy!

1/2 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
2 bunches fresh spinach - chopped, washed and dried
1 pint strawberries, halved

Whisk together the sugar, sesame seeds, sesame oil, poppy seeds, paprika, oil and vinegar. Then, refrigerate until chilled.    


In a salad bowl, combine the spinach and strawberries. Drizzle with dressing, toss lightly and serve.               


I topped with a little feta cheese when serving...and that really made me a happy camper!
