I found this recipe a few years ago in Bon Appetit. A cool refreshing salad perfect for summer parties or bbq's. Make sure to dress right before serving or serve dressing on the side. Ingredients:
12 ounces fresh spinach |
1 red onion, thinly sliced |
3 avocados, sliced |
1 cup chopped walnuts (optional) |
1 tablespoon dried basil |
1/4 cup red wine vinegar |
1/2 cup olive oil |
2 cloves garlic, minced |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl whisk first 5 ingredients until sugar is dissolved.
2. Add in fresh basil and put to the side.
3. In a large bowl toss spinach, red onion and walnuts{if using} together.
4. Arrange avocados on top of the salad before serving.
