I found this in a Healthy Ideas magazine from my local GIANT food store. I'm posting for safe keeping and I will update once I make it. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |
1/2 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1/2 cup red onion, thinly sliced |
6 cups baby spinach |
1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced |
3 slices bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, garlic and pepper. 2. Add onions and marinate for 10 minutes. 3. In a large salad bowl, combine spinach and fennel. 4. Pour dressing over spinach and toss to combine. 5. Top with bacon bits. 6. NOTE: The dressing can be marinated for 24 hours to allow the flavors to develop. Make sure to marinate the onions in the dressing. This will mellow out the strong raw onion flavor and turn onions a brighter color. Pour over salad before serving. |
