Not your traditional Spinach Salad! The hubbie and I are big fans of a traditional spinach salad but wanted something that was a bit heartier. Something we could make a meal of if we wanted. Open refrigerator, voila! We don't really measure this but thought the following would be perfect for a supper for 4.
Ingredients:
4 bunches fresh spinach, washed well, drained, stemmed and chilled
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
1 1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded, chilled
2 cups cherry tomatoes
1 cup radish, thinly sliced
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, wiped clean, thinly sliced
1/2 lb bacon, fried and crumbled
1 cup toasted crouton
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
3 tablespoons salad oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Directions:
1. Mandarin Dressing:.
2. Set aside to blend flavors.
3. I don't live where bagged spinach is available, so am forced to use fresh. If you can buy bagged, Buy Bagged!
4. Place the spinach in a large wooden bowl.
5. Top with remaining ingredients, except for the sesame seeds.
6. Pour on the dressing.
7. Toss salad gently when serving.
8. Garnish with sesame seeds.
9. Serve on chilled plates with hot rolls or French bread.
